+        Spans the full :meth:`get_min_index`-:meth:`get_max_index` range for `now`
+        (rather than a single index) to account for rollover uncertainty since the
+        last observed alignment -- see those methods for why that range can be wider
+        than one index.
+
+        Returns a mapping rather than a set so that a caller which matches an
+        advertisement can pass the matching index back to :meth:`update_alignment`.
+        That is what keeps the range narrow, and the difference is not small: on a
+        30-day-old accessory aligned at index 2880, a 12 hour margin derives 100 keys
+        where a fresh alignment needs 3, at roughly 100x the cost. Membership tests
+        and iteration behave as they would on a set, so ``key in acc.current_keys()``
+        still reads the same.
+
+        **A bare call assumes the alignment is trustworthy**, which is the common case
+        only for a caller that keeps it so. `margin` widens the range on *both* sides
+        and exists for when it is not: without it the range starts at the alignment
+        index, so an accessory whose true index has ended up below where alignment
+        believes it is can never be matched -- it is simply never recognized, with
+        nothing raising anywhere. This has been observed on a real accessory,
+        advertising steadily a metre from the scanner and absent from its own
+        candidate set. :meth:`findmy.scanner.NearbyOfflineFindingDevice.is_from` takes
+        the same precaution, with a 12 hour margin.
+
+        So the two work together: pass a margin to recover from drift, feed the index
+        of whatever matched back into :meth:`update_alignment`, and subsequent calls
+        collapse to the cheap case.
