+/**
+ * Core day paths under a host zone far from UTC.
+ *
+ * The suite pins the host to UTC (`vitest.config.mts`), and the production
+ * image to Europe/Berlin. Both sit close enough to UTC that a UTC day and a
+ * local day agree for most of every day, which is how day-boundary defects
+ * kept passing: the evening west of UTC and the small hours east of it are
+ * exactly the hours no fixture lived in. This harness sets the HOST zone
+ * (`process.env.TZ`, in code; the `TZ=` prefix on the command line does not
+ * reach Vitest's workers here) to one zone at each edge, gives the account
+ * the same zone, and checks that a handful of the paths people hit name the
+ * local day at the edge of it:
+ *
+ *   - a medication schedule slot, and a course on its last day
+ *   - a mood entry's day
+ *   - the dashboard summary's mood instant (the iOS home tile)
+ *   - a document date from the stated string to the stored instant to the
+ *     DTO
+ *
+ * Each zone is tested at the instant where its local day and the UTC day
+ * differ: 23:30 in Los Angeles (already tomorrow in UTC) and 00:30 on
+ * Kiritimati (still yesterday in UTC).
