+ * objectstack#26890 — a child write through a related list the record page's
+ * AUTHOR declared refreshes the parent record's header, in place.
+ *
+ * The reported reach (HotCRM on 18.2.0, quote QTE-0007 → Related → Quote Line
+ * Items → New → Create): the line-item hook rolled the total onto the quote,
+ * the server held the new total, and the header kept the old one until a
+ * reload.
+ *
+ * objectui#12244 already re-reads the parent on a child write, but only for the
+ * children the record page DERIVES from the relationship graph
+ * (`deriveRelatedLists`). An authored record page declares its own related
+ * lists — `record:related_list` blocks and `record:reference_rail` entries —
+ * and a child it lists there need not be one the graph derives: its FK may opt
+ * out of the derived lists (`relatedList: false`), the page then being the only
+ * place that child is shown. A write to such a child reached the bus under the
+ * child's name and matched nothing, so the parent row stayed as first loaded.
+ *
+ * What this file pins, through the real page and the real MutationEvent bridge:
+ *
+ *   1. A create, an update and a delete of a child the authored page lists in a
+ *      `record:related_list` block each re-read the parent once, and the
+ *      header shows the server's recomputed total.
+ *   2. The same for a child listed only in a `record:reference_rail` entry.
+ *   3. Scope stays tight: a write to an object the page does not list and the
+ *      graph does not derive does not re-read the parent.
+ *
+ * The fake backend recomputes the rollup itself, as the server's hook does, so
+ * the figure the header shows can only have come from a fresh read of the
+ * parent.
