It's as if mobile (EA) was only managing to back up megolm keys for one device per user. Or possibly online backup wasn't restored at all due to a race between QR verif and sharing the MSK, and the only historical messages they could see were ones where keyshares requests had kicked in. Rageshakes attached.
