Research direction

Reproduce the issue with Twenty Fourteen on an Atomic site, first without WooCommerce and then with it, using more than 10 posts and a homepage limit of 5. Compare infinite-scroll loading and the default footer in both states; done means additional posts load after WooCommerce is activated and the footer behavior remains correct.
