Research direction
Reproduce with npm install, npm start init-store, npm start, then open localhost:8080 and mws-docs. Start at packages/server/src/streamer.ts:543 and trace the calls through WikiStateStore.ts:254, 328, 259, and 233. Done means mws-docs opens without the MaxListenersExceededWarning.
