 /**
  * EntityStore
  *
- * Resolves entity data for components by walking the page hierarchy.
- * Leverages DataStore for caching and deduplication.
+ * Walks the block→page→parent→site cascade to find applicable fetch configs,
+ * asks the Website's FetcherDispatcher to execute them, and assembles the
+ * data payload passed to `prepare-props`.
  *
- * Two-method API:
- * - resolve(block, meta) — sync, reads cache only
- * - fetch(block, meta)   — async, fetches missing data via DataStore
+ * The cascade, localization, detail-query handling, and collection-first
+ * content-gate logic all live here — unchanged from the pre-refactor model.
+ * What changed: EntityStore no longer talks to DataStore directly. It calls
+ * `website.fetcher.peek(request, ctx)` for the sync path (resolve) and
+ * `website.fetcher.dispatch(request, ctx)` for the async path (fetch).
+ * The dispatcher owns fetcher selection, cache-key derivation, cache lookup,
+ * and in-flight dedup.
