-* A waiting `drain` call parks its void resolver in the `#waiting` field. The `push` method links a

-* synchronously, so each value reaches exactly one reader, a push and a take each cost constant
-* time, and every taken cell but the newest is released at once; the `#tail` field holds the newest
-* cell until the next push links after it, so a channel retains at most one taken value. A reader

+/**
+* Buffers chunks in a minimal unbounded async channel — the eager pump writes them in (`push`)

+* through the `drain` async-iterator. Decoupling write from read is what lets a producer make
+* progress without a consumer pulling, and it is why an agent's `result` settles whether or not
+* its `events` are drained.
+*
+* @remarks
+* A waiting `drain` call parks its void resolver in the `#waiting` field. The `push` method links a
+* cell after the `#tail` cell, and the `close` and `fail` methods flag the end; each then fires and
+* clears every parked resolver, so each parked reader wakes, reads the `#head` cell, and either
+* takes the next chunk, returns (on `close`), throws (on `fail`), or parks again when another
+* reader took the chunk first. Taking a chunk reads its value and moves `#head` to the next cell
+* synchronously, so each value reaches exactly one reader, a push and a take each cost constant
+* time, and every taken cell but the newest is released at once; the `#tail` field holds the newest
+* cell until the next push links after it, so a channel retains at most one taken value. A reader
+* suspended at its `yield` expression holds only the value it took, never a cell, so the bound on
+* retained values covers both the channel's fields and a suspended reader.
+* A `return()` issued while a read is parked waits for the next `push`, `close`, or `fail`.
+* The parked read takes a pushed value before that `return()` settles.
