A short architecture article. The technical reference supports the topic; hypothetical scenarios and assessment proposals are editorial analysis, not accounts of personal implementations.

## The architecture decision

An interface may clear local state while another component still accepts an issued credential. Explain revocation scope and timing.

## Practical application

Editorial proposal: model logout, device loss and privilege changes separately. In a hypothetical browser-and-app journey, record which sessions each event terminates.

## How to verify

Test an earlier session after revocation and inspect dependencies. Document any residual window, rationale and mitigation. Align the user-facing promise with actual enforcement rather than implying immediate termination where it does not exist.
