I have another possible use case, for restarting the same workflow run from a different point (although not the start of the graph). Consider a DR situation with some workflows...

(Actually, I'll restore the question label until next meeting - others may have an opinion).

Also see #5975 - that seems a more natural fit for dummy mode than sim mode. In principle we could run some real jobs in sim mode, but I'm not...

Just tried with the "backward" recurrence alone: ``` INFO - Cylc version: 8.3.0.dev INFO - Run mode: live INFO - Initial point: 2000 INFO - Final point: 2010 INFO -...

Yeah, I think I understand it ...

Actually, I'm kinda surprised this worked in Cylc 7. (Did it?) The pre-initial dependency handling only ever (as I recall) applied to the initial cycle point of the workflow, not...
