- Around line 152-153: Update the batched delete handling around
enrichChangeWithVirtualProps so previousValue uses an immutable enriched
before-image captured when the delete enters batchedEvents, rather than
enriching the mutated pending row during flush. Preserve the existing coalescing
behavior while preventing reused provider-row replacement fields from appearing
in the delete snapshot.

Repairs established Core mutation and reconciliation defects: same-key delete→insert sequences now reduce against authoritative state without losing concurrent intent, sync publications keep the correct immutable before-image, and local-only/local-storage echoes preserve whole-row replacement shape. Persistence, indexes, storage, and subscribers converge without a new API or conflict policy.
Root cause
originalvalues, which may belong to another pending overlay; repeated deletes could then silently collapse a real replacement to zero mutations.previousValuefor a valid live-reading row object, but trusting it for ordinary replacement objects let stale or partial provider snapshots override the collection's pre-sync visible row. Queued rollback could publish the wrong before-image and corrupt index refcounts.Approach
syncedData: no authoritative row remains an insert, an exact restoration cancels, and a real replacement becomes one update with a symmetric key-union diff, structural equality, final metadata, and merged sync metadata.previousValueonly when an update reuses the exact stored live-reading object, and preserve only the first operation's before-image per key.Key invariants
null, andundefinedfields remain distinguishable inchangesand replacement shape.previousValueis suppressed when the row did not change; an unseen key still publishes as an insert.Non-goals and design gates
previousValue. A stale or partialpreviousValueon that same reference is observationally indistinguishable from the valid live-getter case. This PR does not add provenance/version/completeness state to distinguish it.3b991173base and GREEN with merged fix: preserve accepted snapshots and fence stale replay reads #1822 (3ad64a42).Trade-offs and client weight
The repair adds one batch-local map for first-operation before-images and otherwise reuses existing authoritative state, structural equality, virtual enrichment, and cache machinery. A private mutation-lineage WeakMap was deleted after adversarial review showed authoritative state was both smaller and correct across repeated concurrent overlays. Full-row loopback configuration is two one-line settings rather than adapter-specific mutation branches.

The unresolved same-reference stale-provider regime cannot be identified reliably enough to throw without also rejecting valid live rows. Despite the reduction, every required artifact metric remains positive versus base, so the PR is held for explicit approval under the zero-net shipped-code policy.A final Design Grammar pass tested composing the changed-key Set with the first-operation Map, reusing publication/diff/adapter machinery, consolidating transaction cases, and simplifying the provider-before-image expression. The carrier fusion grew minified compressed output and needed a subtle metadata-placeholder rule. The expression-only variant saved at most 48 raw / 10 gzip bytes, was Brotli-neutral, and changed invalid runtime
previousValue: nullhandling. Both were rejected. Production code and every shipped artifact remain byte-for-byte identical to reviewed head558bb9e1; the follow-up adds only durable metadata-first, symbol, key-order, and virtual-before-image test controls.Verification
