-payloads through batched snapshot records instead of the intended mapped or

+The cold-only failure exposed by `0.3.90` was a bootstrap ownership race, not a
+bulk snapshot transfer: live SoA subscriptions began before the blocking cold
+asset acquisition, so their retained capability expired before Unity pumped it.
+`0.3.91` resolves the surface first, completes provider-asset acquisition, and
+only then starts live subscriptions. A fresh current generation therefore owns
+the first lowered frame. No retry timer or stale-body reinterpretation exists.
