Lanes keep a game's events adjacent, which is what makes the board
readable for someone playing four of them — but a reader with four games
has one queue of deadlines, and lanes scatter it: the thing ending
tonight sits three lanes below the thing ending next month, and no
amount of scrolling puts them side by side. So the stacking becomes a
choice, and the choice is remembered like the scale and the view are.
The merged mode sorts with endingSoonestFirst rather than a bare end
date, so the timeline and the list cannot mean different things by the
same words — and an unannounced end keeps its place behind every dated
one instead of pretending to a deadline.
