-# [XS] moq-mux skips a truncated spliced group
-
-## Goal
-
-A moq-mux test feeds its consumer a spliced group whose continuation can never
-arrive and asserts the group is skipped as aborted, not read as a short clean
-group.
-
-## Plan
-
-Start after #4689 lands: it makes `group::Consumer` reads and `finished()` fail
-on a truncated spliced group (`Error::Dropped` for a pruned seam, else the dead
-route's error), where they used to end clean. moq-mux's consumer already drops a group
-whose read fails, but only code reading verified that; no test covers a spliced
-group. Build one with the moq-net resume test fixtures, or the smallest public
-path to a pruned seam.
-
-Public API: none. Wire: none.
