- `BadHistoryOperationUnsupported` **without calling the backend** — the gateway streams ascending only and rejects `end < start`,
- and draining the whole window to keep its tail would be exactly the unbounded read the cap prevents. Because the refusal is a

+ - **Ties** are sorted by `EventId` (ordinal) on every read — the gateway orders by `EventTimeUtc` only, in any order within a
+ timestamp — so the page is DESCENDING `(EventTimeUtc, EventId)` and a resumed page's boundary skip lines up; the
+ oversized-cluster over-fetch keeps exactly the events at `T` (the gateway's end is inclusive) in the same order.
+ - **"More exists"** is found by walking for one event past the page (the walk has no source truncation flag to hand on).
+ - **Uncapped** reverse reads are one forward read of the window, sorted and reversed.
+ - ⚠️ **Also fixed (#691.4 review): uncapped events reads on Gateway.** `NumValuesPerNode = 0` reaches the source as

- **Gateway open upper bound.** The `DateTime.MaxValue` (UTC) bound of a start-only forward read is pinned offline through the
published client's proto `Timestamp` conversion (captured by an in-process gRPC server) and the FILETIME encoding
(`GatewayEventBoundsTests`). What a live AVEVA Historian does with a year-9999 bound is still unverified (needs the VPN).

-/// one timestamp-resolution wide that still does not fit — is refused:

-/// exact whether the backend's forward end is exclusive (the interface contract) or inclusive (the gateway) and
-/// whether it truncates its bounds (QuestDB-style); and because the request start is already on a millisecond, a row

+///
+///

+/// Uncapped (want = 0): ONE forward read of the whole window, filtered and reversed in memory.
+///
+///
+/// Capped: walk back in segments. Starting at hi, read one segment (segLo, segHi] FORWARD, keep
+/// it newest-first, and step to the next older segment until the cap is met or lo is reached. The first
+/// segment is wide, or the width the previous page of the same read ended on (carried in
+/// the continuation point). After each read the next width is re-aimed from the density just observed at about half
+/// the PAGE budget 2N + 16 (≈ N + 8 rows), growing at most ×4 per step (#689 — it used to aim at half the tie
+/// budget, ~32k rows, whatever N was) — so a live tag's "latest N" is usually one read of about N rows, and sparse
+/// history is found in a few dozen tiny reads.
+///
+///
+/// Read sizes. A segment read asks for its budget + 2 rows (room for a row an AVEVA read fabricates at its query
+/// start, and one to see past the segment). The budget is the page budget, except a discovery segment — the
+/// first of a page with no carried width, or one after an empty segment (whose ×4 growth may overshoot into dense
+/// data) — which may read up to . The tie budget M = max(1, MaxTieClusterOverfetch)
+/// is only a CEILING: a single timestamp holding more rows than the segment budget escalates to M.
+///
+///
+/// Never answer from a truncated read. Rows stream ascending, so a read is complete for its segment when it was
+/// not cut short OR its last row is already past segHi. An incomplete read is discarded: when rows BEFORE the
+/// segment (a neighbouring tie cluster inside the alignment slack, a fabricated row) crowded it out it is re-read once
+/// with room for them (at most twice the budget + 4); otherwise the segment is narrowed — to the density the truncated
+/// read showed, and never again below the newest row it saw (known: rows exist there, so walking past it before
+/// finding what lies above it would re-read the same dense stretch over and over; the gap above it is bisected
+/// instead). Only more than M rows within one millisecond — a segment no wider than the 1 ms request
+/// granularity that still does not fit at the tie budget — is refused (per millisecond, not per timestamp: narrower
+/// requests are the same request, and the Gateway stores milliseconds).
+///
+///
+/// Proving the rest empty (#691). Walking down to the floor through empty history used to take one read per ×4
+/// growth step (~14 reads from a minute to the epoch) — on every page that ran out of rows. After two consecutive empty
+/// segments the walk asks once per page for the WHOLE remainder (lo, segHi] at the page budget: a complete
+/// answer ends the walk in one read; a truncated one (deep history) is discarded and the walk carries on as before. And
+/// the stretch a page's last complete segment proved empty below its oldest row rides the continuation point
+/// (), so the next page steps over it — the rows of a page are often the

+/// whether the backend's forward end is exclusive or inclusive and whether it truncates its bounds; a row fabricated at
+/// the (millisecond) query start can never land inside the segment (#687). Adjacent segments share no timestamp.
+///
+///
+/// Ties come back in the backend's forward order reversed, or — with a tie order given (events, whose gateway
+/// order within a timestamp is arbitrary) — sorted by it and reversed, so a resumed page's boundary-tie skip lines up.
