The comment cited 1 MiB of RIS as evidence the tail high-water is zero. At
1 MiB the *deleted-pump* arm never reaches TAIL_CAP either, so the number
proved nothing: both worlds report "never full" and the measurement agrees
with whatever it was pointed at. 4 MiB is also short -- a 16 KiB read of RIS
defers 16382 bytes, not 16384, so it stops 512 bytes under the cap. 8 MiB is
where the counterfactual fires.

Also disambiguates the read count. 257 is reads *completed*; the 256 in the
review thread was a zero-based loop index, and a comment that doesn't say
which invites the next probe to disagree with it by one.

Found by Sami, in wording he had written and I had shipped -- I hit the same
defect on my own probe an hour earlier, fixed my run, and copied his number
across without noticing it had the flaw I'd just corrected.
