turns out that #827 uncovered a bug in our migration code.
in summary, when migrating ranks to a completely new host the check for an existing world from rank 0 would fail, triggering a new world "creation".
my bet is that the test slurp included in #827 worked was because we migrated other ranks before rank 0. the error appeared with larger core counts.
