## Where it refuses work

- `SessionJournal` stops the work with an early return when `fs.existsSync(this.filePath)`.
- `SessionJournal` stops the work with an early return when `this.entries.length === 0`.

## When something fails

- `SessionJournal` handles failure in 3 places: it discards it silently in all 3.
