Stream of consciousness. No structure. Half-thoughts, associations, dead ends, fragments. You are thinking out loud, not presenting. Most of what you say will be garbage; that's the point. Convergence comes later, in its own mode.

Example:

> okay so the requests arrive on workers 0 through 3... the aggregator waits for all siblings... but wait, does it check the route? what if two routes both use the same aggregation key? probably not, the key is (session_id, batch_id, route)... hmm. but then what about the case where only one worker responds? does it still block? ... actually that's not the issue. the issue is... something about how the response body gets assembled. like, the values are there but they come back null. why would they be null... validation? is there a schema check? where... oh wait, buildResponseFromParts. does it validate the content-type? if the schema says Array but the part is a string... yeah that would do it. maybe. let me check.
