Nothing resolved `bao.<swarm.domain>`. It is absent from
`swarm.serviceDomains` and, unlike every other swarm service, contributed
no `gateway.localNames` entry — so the name a reader dials answered only
if an operator had published an external record, which nothing asks them
to do.
Cross-hive traffic goes via the domain either way; only what it resolves
to varies, and for a multi-host swarm that is the operator's upstream DNS.
This covers the deployment with no upstream record to configure.
DNS only, and that asymmetry is deliberate: bao stays out of
`serviceDomains` and gets no vhost. Its leaf comes from its own CA, so a
services-CA entry would mint one nothing uses, and nginx terminating TLS
would strip the client certificate the store authenticates every hive
with. `swarm-nats.nix` documents the same exclusion for itself.
module-eval gains the presence and absence arms: claiming a name this
host does not serve would point every local reader at the wrong machine.
