Review finding on #13, and the last change to this function. A typo'd variable name on a line that HAS its `|| exit 2` guard — `$CONTNET_B` for `$CONTENT_B` — fails in EXPANSION, before the command runs, so neither the guard nor the ERR trap ever sees it. Under `set -u` that exits 1, which was the code meaning "measured, and the answer is mtime". Not a live defect: the probe references only set variables today, and the 1 gitdan-ci reports is a genuine measurement. The defect is that the answer codes and the error codes overlapped at all. Three rounds on this function each found a narrower way for a shell-generated 1 to be read as a measurement — an unguarded command, then a guarded line whose guard could not fire — and each was closed by narrowing the failure surface, which is a game with no last move. INACTIVE is now 3, and anything that is not 0 or 3 is NOT MEASURED. Bash generates 1, 2, 126, 127 and 128+n for its own errors and never 3, so "not an answer" is decided by a property of the shell rather than by an enumeration of the ways a step can go wrong. A step added later without a guard, or with a guard that cannot fire, lands on NOT MEASURED by construction. The guards and the trap stay, with their job restated: reporting rather than correctness. They put a failed step on 2 with both probe logs printed instead of on some incidental status — nicer to debug, and the same destination either way. The `set +e` bracket at the call site keeps its own note, since a `set -e` that cannot fire is the kind of thing a reader assumes works. The not-measured message now quotes the actual exit code, so the two ways to reach it are distinguishable in a log without reading this file. Red-proven with the reviewer's own mutation, A/B: with INACTIVE at 1 the typo reports `mode: off — resolves freshness by mtime`, a false measurement; at 3 it reports `mode: unmeasured — the probe exited 1`. All four paths re-verified — unmodified 4 assertions; env stripped inside the probe, measured INACTIVE with the mtime reason; a broken probe build, unmeasured via a guard; an unguarded `false`, unmeasured via the trap.
