+/**
+ * ## distinguishing characteristics of robbots
+ *
+ * With any witness ibgib, we are concerned with interpreting an incoming
+ * arg ibgib and producing at least one result ibgib. Most often, there will
+ * be additional ibgibs created, either creating "new" ibgibs via `fork`
+ * transforms, or changing existing ibgibs through `mut8` and `rel8`
+ * transforms. And almost always these will be persisted in at least
+ * one space.
+ *
+ * But Robbots in particular are meant to be increasingly adaptable over time.
+ *
+ * This results in a couple of notes:
+ *
+ * 1. They should be able to handle any incoming ibgib, including primitives.
+ * 2. If they are learning robbots, then they will mutate internally at some rate.
+ * 3. Often robbots' output ibgib(s) will be intended for others'
+ *    consumption, in service of others - be they humans or other
+ *    biologically living organisms, other robbots or even later versions of
+ *    themselves.
+ *
+ * So for example, one of the simplest robbots is one which simply echos the
+ * incoming ibgib arg.
+
+ * ## architecture
+ *
+ * At the base, any robbot should be able to handle any incoming ibgib.  This is
+ * in contrast to, e.g., a Space, which is more rigid in design.
+ *
+ * Certainly there are robbot's who will be more rigid, but this will be an
+ * abstract class on top of this one, and all robbots should be able to react to
+ * all incoming ibgibs.
+ *
+ * Output will default to a simple ok^gib or (ROOT) ib^gib primitive...perhaps
+ * we'll go with ack^gib, but whatever it is, it's just an acknowledgement of
+ * input received.  (I'll put it in the constants file).
+ *
+ * Side effects should occur in a parallel execution thread, which ideally would
+ * work in a completely parallel execution context (like a service worker). But
+ * then we have to deal with race conditions and the real solution there is to
+ * abstract to the robbot having its own space and the synchronization happening
+ * exactly like any other sync space.
+ *
+ * For now, we'll spin off a promise with some intermittent `await delay`
+ * calls if they end up called for, effectively the equivalent of the
+ * old-fashioned "ProcessMessages/DoEvents" hack.
