+Both counts must be zero for a phase to pass, and an empty capture, or one carrying no bind and its

+A peer whose scenarios send malformed PDUs on purpose — jsmpp does, to prove they are refused — has
+no way to say so, so its run exits non-zero every time and its findings file carries the count that
+is expected. Give the runner an expected count per peer, and a deviation from it becomes the signal
+that a bare threshold cannot be: today a third malformed frame appearing beside jsmpp's two
+deliberate ones looks exactly like the two.
