Found by comparing the first real one-hour transcript against pianissimo:
whisper.cpp wraps at ~60 chars and can wrap INSIDE a word. The continuation
segment has no leading space, the text field joins segments with newlines, and
a segment can be a lone '.'. Measured 2026-10-01: 7% of segments (96/1332) in a
synthetic hour, 42/1302 lines in the real one. My earlier tests used short
sentences and could not see it. berget's segments are whole sentences with no
leading space, so the two backends need different joins.
Red: Text still joins by newline.
