`quarantine_path` ends in
candidates.find(|c| !c.exists()).unwrap_or(base)
which reads as a defensive branch for a case that cannot happen. It is
the wrap. Eight is a cap on how much of a repeatedly-corrupted file's
history a config directory may accumulate, and once every name is taken
the oldest copy is the one overwritten.
The part worth writing down is what that leaves behind: nothing rotates
the numbered names, so from the cap onward `.corrupt.1` through
`.corrupt.7` hold the second through eighth corruptions forever and only
the base name moves. Read as a timeline — which is how someone
recovering a tree would read it — that is the opposite of what it looks
like.
Pinned rather than asserted: nine corruptions, eight files left, the
ninth landing on the base, and the base holding the ninth's contents.
Found by sweeping numeric constants for ones whose *value* is
load-bearing. Most of the 367 undocumented ones are self-evident (font
size bounds, test timeouts); this was the one where the number decides
what a user can still recover.
