The current logic of listeners/channel_link.py has the bot stop any evaluation if the user joins a channel where they have pre-existing overwrites. When speaking with Claude Opus 4.6, an edge case was presented:

"... Consider: a user moves from one linked VC to another, and they have a role granting read access in the new channel. The old channel's overwrite never gets cleaned up because you returned before reaching line 52. Is that a scenario that could occur?"

Desired functionality is to re-write logic so that this edge case is not possible.

Addressed by #276. No documentation updates necessary. Closing.
