🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

thread_indent:string(delta:long)

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• delta — the amount of space added/removed for each call. That's the whole argument, she's low maintenance 💅

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Okay so here's the tea 🍓: this function returns a string with appropriate indentation for a thread. Cute, right? Call it with a small positive delta, or with a matching negative delta to undo the whole thing.

And now the plot twist 👀 — if this is the real outermost, initial level of indentation, then the function resets the relative timestamp base to zero. Not me resetting the base, no cap.

The timestamp itself is as per provided by the __indent_timestamp function, which by default measures microseconds. Periodt. 🔥
