- * This lives outside the class, and is shared by {@link CommonMemoryCache#getValue} and

- * of them drifted: `getValues` inspected its own accumulator instead of the per-key entry, so `.length` was
- * `undefined`, the comparison was always false, and **every key resolved to `null`** whatever Redis returned.
+ * NOTE: This lives outside the class, and is exported, for the same reason the Redis decoders are: the cache singleton
+ * builds its own backend in its constructor, so the reconciliation cannot be driven without a live server. This is the
+ * pure half of it, and it is the half that decides whether an instance starts.

- * The accumulator has no prototype on purpose: the key names come from the caller, and a cache key named `__proto__`
