The real 'false start': the auto-select-Spending one-shot yanking the card back. On open, when Savings is empty and Ark has a balance, the wallet flips you to Spending — a convenience. But it fires on every Ark update and only latches once the balance SYNCS, which after a refresh arrives a second late — right after you've dragged to Savings, so it overrides your choice and slides back. Now any deliberate pick (carousel scroll/tap/flick, swipe, accounts screen) sets accountUserChosen, and the auto-select consumes its one-shot without flipping when you've already chosen
