Commit A removes a redundant UI action/toolbar and duplicated form logic, unifying the compose flow with SSR consistency and deleting dead code plus its test, yielding a net simplification with clear lasting value. Commit B changes sibling grouping behavior (each unranked item its own group) with a test update, which is a reasonable but narrower, more speculative UX tweak whose correctness/value is less clearly justified in the diff.

council reasoning
A removes an entire UI RPC (ExpandNewThreadForm), its handler, and the home-only toolbar, SSRing #new-thread-ui-slot like room pages so compose is one consistent path. B only changes unranked sibling bundling into per-item groups plus a test—useful but a narrower nav tweak versus A’s lasting simplification of the public compose flow.
Side A simplifies the UI architecture by removing the `ExpandNewThreadForm` action and its server-side dispatch logic, and instead server-renders the collapsed compose/login state directly into `#new-thread-ui-slot` on the home page, eliminating duplicated flows and obsolete parsing/tests. Side B improves sibling navigation by placing each unranked sibling into its own group and adds a regression test, but it is a narrower behavioral adjustment compared with A's broader reduction of redundant code paths.

message
[601d3a05] fix(html): drop home toolbar + and ExpandNewThreadForm (single + flow) Public home now SSRs #new-thread-ui-slot like room pages: collapsed compose for signed-in users, login hint when logged out. Removes the extra toolbar that morphed the same collapsed state and the expand_new_thread_form action. Made-with: Cursor
