`45a7176` composes a box down its move chain on a grid fine enough to round
once instead of once a level. `Holds::through`'s two-route allowance is two
half steps where it was three, and it cost nothing: 1,880M instructions and
755M cycles against 1,908M and 760M, with all twenty-five work counters
identical. What paid for the widening is that a length composes on its own in
half the multiplies both ends of a box need, and that only the fraction needs
the extra room.
The i64 item in "Next" keeps the measurement that redirected it, since
aiming the work at the screen invariant would have been wasted.
One half step further is arithmetically available and not taken: shrinker
seed 220 on `reorder` then diverges warm against cold, by re-breaking a
wrapping text whose reported width moves a `Branch` onto its other subtree.
That is written up under the `Holds::through` invariant with its reduction
command and its ten-widget tree, and it is the next thing to chase.
