Phone audit: the same screen showed green 'SIGNAL LIVE · UPDATED 0s ago' AND
amber 'SYNC 46:03' — two components reading different fields. The Slate's
'UPDATED Xs ago' measured the CLIENT poll time (always ~0s, since it refetches
every 60s), while the app-bar clock honestly measured the pipeline's data age
(refreshed_at). '0s ago' claimed a freshness the data didn't have.
Now the Slate captures snap.refreshed_at from the snapshot it already fetches
(newest across sports) and 'UPDATED' shows THAT — the same source of truth as
the clock. The clock still owns the amber/STALE reaction; the strip just states
the honest data age. No more contradiction.
