Side B removes a ~1800-line brittle keystroke-transition parser/autocomplete graph (with its race-condition test harness, client-side debounce logic, and CSS) and replaces it with a small, correct, well-tested URL-parsing function plus a simple paste-and-go form, meaningfully simplifying the codebase while fixing real reliability issues. Side A is a reasonable internal storage refactor (deque->append-only list with query-time capping) but is a much smaller, more localized change with lower overall impact.

council reasoning
B replaces an unreliable ~1800-line keystroke graph parser (plus parser_action, race-handling JS, and Playwright test) with a small paste-and-go URL extractor and redirect, permanently removing a complex failure-prone subsystem. A is a sound but narrower design change (Deque→List, write-time trim→read-time cap) in the projection path; valuable, yet secondary to B’s net simplicity and correctness gain on a core user flow.
Side A makes a substantive storage-model redesign by replacing the durable recent-vote deque with an append-only list, removing post-commit trimming, updating the schema version, and enforcing the cap at read time with a regression test. Side B largely simplifies the UI by deleting the complex autocomplete/parser graph in favor of a paste-and-go textarea and redirect flow, which is a product simplification but removes substantial functionality rather than adding durable infrastructure.
