-// NG0953 ("Unexpected emit for destroyed OutputRef") is emitted when ng-select
-// emits on an OutputRef during fixture teardown under fake timers. It is a real
-// lifecycle smell, not pure noise — silencing it here is a pragmatic stopgap so
-// these specs stay readable, not a fix. The proper fix is to stop the
-// emit-after-destroy in the component teardown path; until then this is
-// scoped to the two affected specs and passes every other warning through so it
-// does not hide unrelated regressions. Do not promote this to a global filter.
+// NG0953 ("Unexpected emit for destroyed OutputRef") comes from ng-select's
+// dropdown panel: `_measureDimensions` retries through a Promise and
+// requestAnimationFrame chain with no destroyed guard, so it emits after the
+// panel is torn down (https://github.com/ng-select/ng-select/issues/2869).
+// Silencing is a stopgap until ng-select guards that chain; it passes every
+// other warning through. Do not promote this to a global filter.
