 1. This policy only affects the async logger path and only matters when the configured sink has a meaningful flush function.
 
 2. `AsyncFlushPolicy::Never` is the default in `AsyncLoggerConfig::new(...)`.

 - Under drop policies, sustained overload increases `dropped_count()` instead of guaranteeing delivery.
 
+- The precise record discarded by the underlying queue behavior depends on the selected policy and queue implementation, so callers should not assume `dropped_count()` alone identifies which message was lost.

 ### Notes
 
 1. This policy applies to `bitlogger_async`, not synchronous `QueuedSink`.
 
 2. Choose `Blocking` only when producer-side waiting is acceptable for the caller.
