+     * one of these is harmless for a vanilla client, but prediction-based anticheats such as GrimAC
+     * emit a transaction (ClientboundPing) sandwich for *every* SetHealth they see. At ~20 redundant
+     * health packets per second this doubles the transaction rate and delivers them in bursts, which
+     * corrupts Grim's movement clock and produces constant Simulation setbacks — automated clients
+     * (pathfinder bots) then crawl at half speed or get stuck in a setback loop.
+     *
+     * We still update the cache and fire events for every packet (via applyAsync on the event loop),
+     * but we suppress *forwarding* a health packet to the connected client(s) when it is byte-for-byte
+     * identical to the one we last forwarded. A freshly connected controller receives its current
+     * health through the login cache sync (EntityPlayer#addPackets), so nothing observable changes for
+     * the client; only the redundant per-tick stream is dropped.
