Classifier beta-rejection latch still keys off a null placeholder

The automatic retry that would drop a rejected classifier beta can never trigger in this build.

The drop-on-400 latch for the auto-mode classifier beta is keyed on a constant that is null, so the branch and its telemetry are unreachable.

What

The path that drops a classifier beta after an HTTP 400 followed by a successful bare retry is keyed on a beta constant that is null in both builds, so it never fires.

Details
  • The latch bails out early when the constant is null, and the constant is declared as null in 2.1.219 and 2.1.220 alike.
  • The newly-sent auto-mode-classifier beta therefore has no automatic drop-on-400 path in this build.
  • The telemetry it would emit, tengu_auto_mode_beta_latch and permission_auto_mode_classifier, is present but unreachable.
Evidence

tengu_auto_mode_beta_latch

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
