Bootstrapped flag payload merge: Equal flag versions overwrite local values · case 02

A replayed stream event with the same flag version flips the value back to an older payload.

Member previewVariant 2 · 3 implementations · 8 checks per implementation

Case contract

Payloads are {version, flags: {key: {value, version, deleted?}}}. An incoming payload with a lower payload version than local is ignored entirely. Otherwise each incoming flag replaces the local entry only when the key is new or its flag version is strictly higher; deleted tombstones follow the same rule. Return sorted [key, value] pairs for merged flags that are not deleted.

Why this case matters

Clients bootstrap from HTML-embedded flags and then stream updates; stale data must not win.

This sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
