+	   (submitted — the optimistic machine's own flip) and at settle —
+	   busy mirrors the server's own definition (isTurnRunning), so the
+	   patch is exact: spinner up the moment the action happens, cleared
+	   and refetched once at settle (title/order move with turns). The
+	   2.5s poll stays as the BACKSTOP for everything only the server
+	   knows: other windows, wake turns in unopened sessions. A start on
+	   a chat not yet in the snapshot (a brand-new session) = one
