+The lazy row was measured in the same session as the 1.18e-05 the non-lazy
+`test_prefill_cache_hit` read on that GPU, so read the pair as "both fire",
+not as one being weaker.
+
 `test_prefill_cache_hit` is the only case that fires on both, so read the rest as
 extra coverage rather than as the guard for one fix. CI runs `1-gpu-large`, which
 is SM90.
