+        """Rooms shouldn't appear under "joined" if a join loses a race to a ban.
+
+        A complicated edge case. Imagine the following scenario:
+
+        * you attempt to join a room
+        * racing with that is a ban which comes in over federation, which ends up with
+          an earlier stream_ordering than the join.
+        * you get a sync response with a sync token which is _after_ the ban, but before
+          the join
+        * now your join lands; it is a valid event because its `prev_event`s predate the
+          ban, but will not make it into current_state_events (because bans win over
+          joins in state res, essentially).
+        * When we do a sync from the incremental sync, the only event in the timeline
+          is your join ... and yet you aren't joined.
+
+        The ban coming in over federation isn't crucial for this behaviour; the key
+        requirements are:
+        1. the homeserver generates a join event with prev_events that precede the ban
+           (so that it passes the "are you banned" test)
+        2. the join event has a stream_ordering after that of the ban.
+
+        We use monkeypatching to artificially trigger condition (1).
