Why does this bug fix need to alter when polarity changes take effect?

That is an an unrelated change and I don't really agree with it.

This extra debug output seems helpful but could you put it in its own
commit and keep this focused on fixing the instability you observed?

The above lines are duplicated below. Perhaps a function is in order?

It seems like the important parts of the fix could be distilled down
to something like this:
