They were hard-wrapped at 80 characters, broke mid-parenthesis, and spent lines
restating what the code below them does.
Rewrapped at natural boundaries instead, with the narration dropped and only the
reasons, gotchas and surprises kept. Section dividers stay - they delineate long
plays rather than narrate them.
Comments only; no scenario behaviour changes.

Scenarios install their Galaxy dependencies with `force: true`, so two roles
running at once re-extract the same collections and roles into ~/.ansible and
pull them out from under each other mid-play. It surfaces as a collection that
was working moments earlier going missing:
the connection plugin 'community.docker.docker' was not found
Found while running five scenarios in parallel, where it cost a run.
ANSIBLE_HOME relocates both `collections/` and `roles/`, so one variable covers
both halves; the scenarios' ANSIBLE_ROLES_PATH workaround now follows it rather
than hardcoding ~/.ansible/roles. Left alone if already set, and unset in CI,
where each role runs in its own job and has nothing to collide with.
Verified by removing var/molecule-ansible-home entirely and running
matrix-alertmanager-receiver from cold: green through idempotence, with the
collections and roles landing under the per-role directory - which also shows
nothing was quietly relying on the shared ~/.ansible being populated.

The third shape: a non-mautrix bridge. It confirms the scaffolding is not
mautrix-specific, and it is laid out differently enough to be worth having -
everything sits directly under the base path rather than in config/ and
data/ subdirectories, the owner and homeserver URL are passed on the command
line rather than through a config file, so the unit is where they can be
checked, and identd optionally binds host port 113.
matrix-base's matrix_server_fqn_* family moved into the shared context;
18 of the roles here read one of them.
Three roles now, three shapes - HTTP receiver, mautrix bridge, non-mautrix
bridge - and the scaffolding took no per-shape special-casing beyond each
role's own variables.
