Side A restores a real feature (persistent view counts) with new state (ViewStore), middleware wiring, canonical URL normalization, and a concrete integration test verifying counts and canonicalization—substantive new functionality. Side B is a clean but purely internal refactor unifying duplicate new-thread form markup/ids across public/room scopes, valuable for maintainability but lower-impact than adding a working feature with tests.
