It picks a point to split the conversation and decides which of your messages to keep in full.\n\nThat choice now has an extra check. Some of your messages are skipped as split points, unless the message was handed off.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis changes which parts of a conversation survive compaction.\n\n- Area: Compaction\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
