pattern: a burst of taps is not a routine (V-468)

Detect had no floor on the interval. Four events minutes apart give gaps
near 0.002 days, every one of them inside the ±50% band, so it proposed a
routine and PhraseRoutine called it "каждый день".

UNIQUE(action, object) makes that unrecoverable: dismissing the bogus
proposal burns the pair, and the real routine behind it can never be
proposed again. It also made hand-QA unsafe — seeding a pattern with four
chat turns poisoned the pair being tested.

The floor is two hours against the median, not a day, because meals, water
and breaks are genuine several-times-a-day habits.
