`_sweep_labels` ended with `return cached`, and the whole body of
`_drain_app_label_requests` — its docstring, the queue check, the fetch task —
followed it at the same indent level. Valid Python, never executed, and
invisible to every gate: the sweep, ruff and the stub suite all pass over it.
This is the second shipped artefact of its kind (an earlier review found a
duplicated statement), so the mechanism lands in the drift sweep next; here the
dead copy goes.
The `; echo __NSH_EXIT:$?` marker in `_dump_label` is documented while it is
touched (t62 nit b): it sits after a `head` pipeline, Android's sh has no
PIPESTATUS, so `$?` is head's status and never the dump's. Nothing reads its
VALUE — the parser strips the line — and the property that matters is that a
command which RAN leaves non-blank output, which is what separates "ran, no
label" (a cached negative) from "the transport delivered nothing" (a retry).
