A cached negative lookup is mistaken for a miss · case 04
A cached negative lookup is mistaken for a miss.
Case contract
Return [hit,value] for any stored key, including None, false, zero and empty values; absent keys return [miss,None].
Why this case matters
A deterministic cache state transformation. Inputs are copied or treated as immutable; no remote storage, real clock, or concurrent interleaving is simulated.
One recorded failure
Sample boundary fixtureThis sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
| Boundary fixture | Actual | Expected | Outcome |

| fixture 1 | ["miss", null] | ["hit", null] | Failed |
