 Recommendations, not settled:
 
+- Trim against the later of the already-mixed position and the previous

+  instead of failing whole.
 - Keep consecutive writes contiguous: a frame that starts within the
   existing one-millisecond `CONTIGUOUS` stamp rounding of where the last one

+  the write. The snap only absorbs stamp rounding: confirm the source's stamp

+  tighter, so a genuine sub-millisecond gap stays silent.
 - A frame the writer holds earlier than `REACH` ahead waits until it is in
   reach rather than failing.
 - Test on the scene's driver-stepped bus, as `a_write_sounds_when_placed`
