+  # The sibling of Chat, and it exists for one reason: the lexicon rails read

+  # way to compare two sentences by what they mean rather than by what they
+  # spell, and every local proxy that serves chat can usually serve this too.
+  #
+  # Local first, exactly as with Chat. Sending every retrieved document to a
+  # third party to be embedded is a data-flow decision an application should
+  # make deliberately, and on a loopback proxy it is not one at all.
+  #
+  # Batched, because the cost that matters is round trips rather than tokens: a
+  # page has a few dozen clauses, and thirty small requests to score one page is
+  # what makes a rail too slow to leave on.
