A Dolby Vision enhancement layer is a second video track: it does not
drive epochs, but it does carry B-frame reorder. The crossing rule was
keyed on driving epochs, so the EL took the branch whose premise is that
the track has no reorder — and its ordinary reorder dip near the end of a
clip, which during an overlap also lands inside the next clip's range,
was read as a join. The EL was then placed on the next clip's offset, out
of step with the base-layer frame it must be co-timed with by the width
of the overlap: the same desync the per-track cursor was added to remove,
reintroduced for one track.
The property the rule actually depends on is whether a backward step can
be reorder, so it is now keyed on that. Both sinks derive it from the
track kind rather than from the epoch driver.
