Side B fixes a genuine correctness bug (ghost items and falsely-marked-voted pairs from zero-ratio votes) with a minimal, precise change and updates the test to verify the corrected invariant. Side A adds a real feature (pool-scoped voting) with broader surface area and more risk, but is feature churn/expansion rather than a bugfix, and its value is more speculative/UX-dependent than B's clear correctness fix.

~x-ai/grok-latest · winner B · 2:3 · permalink

B fixes a real reducer correctness bug by dropping zero-ratio votes before ensure_item/voted_pairs side effects, preventing ghost items and false voted-pair state; the updated test asserts empty indexes rather than registered no-edge items. A adds useful pool-scoped voting UX (query param, next-pair constraint, “vote on children” entry point) but is feature surface on top of voting, not a core integrity fix.

openai/gpt-chat-latest · winner A · 3:2 · permalink

Side A implements a substantial new capability: pool-scoped voting, including `/vote?pool=...` routing, pair selection from a parent's children, preservation of pool context through post-vote navigation, and UI entry points for voting on child items. Side B fixes a real reducer bug by moving the zero-ratio early return before `ensure_item` and `voted_pairs` registration to prevent ghost items and incorrectly marked pairs, but it is a localized correctness fix compared with the broader, integrated functionality added in Side A.

A — c_c6f5afec1d36 (tommy-mor)

message

[5350388a] Add pool-scoped voting: /vote?pool=<parent> picks pairs from children.

- /vote now accepts an optional `pool` param (parent item path). When
  provided without left/right, it picks the first unvoted pair from the
  pool's children. When provided alongside left/right, it constrains
  "next pair" navigation to siblings within the pool.
- "vote on children" button appears on item pages with ≥2 children,
  linking to /vote?pool=<item>.
- Pool is threaded through VoteComparePost → success JS so in-page
  morph after voting keeps the pool context for next-pair navigation.

[81de487b] Fix zero-ratio guard in reducer to drop before registering items or pair.

Previously the early-return for zero-weight votes happened after
ensure_item and voted_pairs.insert, leaving ghost items in the index
and the pair incorrectly marked as voted. Move the check to before
any side effects.
