FLAN_DEV_CLIENT_GRACE dropped from 0.2s to 0.1s, so the daemon's Live
threshold (six graces) is 0.6s instead of 1.2s -- still three ticks
past accept_loop's own 0.2s select granularity, which is where the
margin has to live rather than in the test's own wait. The structural
await scales with it, from three seconds to one: the assertion was
never about the clock, only about serve() sitting in Wire.recv while a
client holds the socket, so the number just had to clear the threshold
with room, not any particular multiple of it.
The other awaits in this test are already ceilings that return the
moment their condition is true, so they cost what the daemon actually
takes and nothing was touched there. A trace of the eval-expr path
elsewhere in this file turned up a second five-second wait, twice over
-- but that one is a documented hang-detection timeout on a program
that structurally cannot reach a frame boundary, the exact shape the
task said to leave alone, so it stayed.
