   - Clear loading indicator shows when entry spot is being fetched during run.
   - Previous entry spot value is retained until new one is derived.
 notes:
-  Current behavior calls derive_entry_spot on every date change which causes
-  API errors if user is still configuring other fields.
-  
-  The refresh_workspace_seeded_units function should not be called on date changes.
-  Entry spot derivation should happen inside start_backtest or as a separate
-  explicit "fetch spot" button if user wants to preview.

+  Removed async refresh_workspace_seeded_units from date change handlers.
+  Entry spot derivation now only happens inside run_read_only_scenario when
+  the user clicks Run. Form changes now call on_form_change() which only
+  updates cost estimates and marks results stale.
