A second review pass over the pool. All three are the same shape: state
or a listener outliving the video it belonged to.
attachProxyFallback replaces whatever fallback an image currently has,
so a call arriving late -- a race hitting its patience timeout after the
card was recycled -- took away the live listener and left a dead one, and
the new video's thumbnail would then fail with nothing behind it. This
one was self-inflicted: the detach came in last round to stop the
listeners accumulating, and introduced the clobber. It is token-guarded
now, like every other path that can arrive late.
The favourite pop is cleared by animationend, which never fires on a card
release() has already detached -- detached elements run no animations. So
the class rode into the pool and replayed on the next video the card
showed. Favourite something and flick-scroll to see it.
And withOrigin compared a token that dataset reports as undefined for an
unstamped card, which matched every unstamped card instead of none --
failing open in the guard whose whole purpose is noticing that the grid
has recycled the card out from under the player.

Scrolling the grid did nothing but destroy cards and build near-identical
ones back: a template string parsed as innerHTML, ten querySelectors, and
a listener per interactive element, every time a card entered the window.
The virtualizer now keeps a pool and rebinds a card it already has --
18us against 136us to build one, and 74-83% of mounts are served from it.
Two things had to change first. Nothing on a card may close over the
video it is showing, because the card outlives the video, so every
interaction moved to one delegated listener per event type on the grid.
And every card now has the same shape whatever it shows: the optional
parts are always present and hidden when unused, so any pooled card fits
any video. That needed a global [hidden] rule, since .live-badge and
.video-tags carry their own display.
The rest is the release path, which is where this design lives or dies.
A thumbnail carries a generation, so a race or a proxy fallback settling
after the card moved on cannot paint over the video now showing. The
player stamps the card it was opened from, so a recycled element stops
answering for it. The reveal handler, the entrance-animation listener and
the hover preview are all taken back off. Anything missed here surfaces
as one video's title, thumbnail or heart on another video's card, which
is what the smoke suite scrolls back and forth to catch.
Two incidental fixes found while measuring: bindCard no longer writes a
data-tag per tag button (dataset is a proxy, and that alone cost more
than the rest of a rebind put together -- the handler reads the label off
the button), and favorites.has no longer parses a URL for every card that
isn't a favorite by key.

The repo has no tests, and the card pool that follows is exactly the kind of
change that breaks quietly: a release path that forgets to clear something
shows one video's title, thumbnail or heart on another video's card. So the
check that matters is that every mounted card renders the video its own
data-video-id names -- asserted after scrolling down and back, which is when
cards get reused.
Passes against the current build, where nothing is recycled yet.
