Two related changes for the same UX problem (#1857 follow-up). 1. Orphan-reply rescue. The grouping in issue-detail.tsx put replies under their parent's CommentCard, looking them up via repliesByParent.get(parentId). When a reply's parent wasn't in the loaded timeline — pagination boundary, merge truncation, future backend bug — the entire reply subtree dropped off the screen, since the orphan replies sat in the map with no CommentCard around to render them. MUL-1847 hit this on the OLD backend: 1 root + 29 replies, the root was the oldest entry and the merge dropped it, so all 29 replies vanished from the UI even though the API returned them. The fix: a reply whose parent_id points to a comment NOT in the loaded timeline is promoted to top-level. It still loses its visual indentation under the missing parent, but it stops disappearing. 2. Page size 50. With activities now decoupled from the comment budget (#2253) and the off-by-one fixed (#2259), 50 fits the typical issue without any "Show older" interaction. Cost is bounded — SQL fetches limit+1 = 51 comments + 50 activities through the keyset index from migration 068; response body grows ~70% over 30 but stays well under the legacy compat path's 200-row cap. UI renders 100 entries comfortably; CommentCards memoize. Frontend default in `client.ts` (`limit = 50`) matches the new backend default (`timelineDefaultLimit = 50`) so pages walk consistently. Test: render-level case in `issue-detail.test.tsx` mocks a timeline page containing only an orphaned reply (parent_id refers to a missing id) and asserts the reply text appears.
