go-to-sleep message can enter into loops through glitches, so that doesn't really work.
easier to ping in both directions when a new debt is created, plus maybe periodically in case pings get lost. although that could allow attackers to attract probes... but then again, they could just send probes anyway... a ping by way of saying please-probe may be simplest. it would work well and be simple in simplistic simulations, can improve later.
