# One small filtered call on the standard board, the way every client should make it:
#   1. price it first with a free quote=true;
#   2. make it with --compressed (gzip; standard refuses a call without it) and read the token headers;
#   3. poll it again with If-None-Match, where an unchanged board answers 304, free;
#   4. back off on 429 (Retry-After) and stop on 402 (out of tokens).
