Apologies for not being specific.

The specific thing I'm talking about is this: write events don't fire until the file handle is closed. [1] I didn't validate this myself btw, but my original design was certainly trying to use notify events rather than stat polling. My research (heavily AI assisted of course) led me away from that path as platforms differ in behavior and I wanted to avoid that.
