+
+Two rules hold this shape together, and each guards against a trap the other
+shape falls into.
+
+**One `SlotFill`, rendered where the choice is made.** The tempting shape is a
+`SlotFill` inside each card, rendered by the card that is open. It works until
+two cards cross: each card reads the signal on its own, so switching from A to
+B is two separate renders, A's fill unmounting in one and B's mounting in the
+other. Between the two the slot is empty, and its renderer is rendered on that
+empty frame — whichever of A or B the tree walks first, the gap exists in one
+of the two directions. The slot cannot tell that gap from a real emptying, and
+does not try to: a fix there would have to guess the scheduler. Rendered once,
+by the component that holds the choice, the fill never leaves; only its
+children change, and there is no gap to fall into.
+
+**The panel is bound to the screen's state, not to `isFilled`.** `isFilled` is
+a fact about the render — whether a fill is mounted right now — and the signal
+is a fact about the screen — which card the address names. `open={isFilled}`
+turns any empty frame into a close, and its `onClose` then clears the very
+state the next fill was waiting for. Bound to the signal, the panel is open
+exactly while a card is named, its own ways out (the close cross, Escape, an
+outside press) clear the signal themselves, and the fill only has to say what
+the panel shows. `isFilled` stays the right `open` for a renderer that has no
+such state — a toolbar or a status shown while anything fills it — fed by the
+one fill above.
+
 A press on another card is not an outside press once the card names the panel
 with `data-navi-popup-inside` (see [popup_backdrop.md](./popup_backdrop.md)).
