Case contract

The active delivery is [assignment generation,message ID]. Acks have the same shape. Return whether any acknowledgment exactly matches both fields. Other deliveries do not share this state.

Why this case matters

Models fencing of consumer acknowledgments across partition ownership changes; unlike checkpoint prefix accounting, the failure concerns ownership of a particular in-flight delivery.
