Description
The experimental dashboard has had no aligned run from Jul 18th to Jul 22th, the dashboard is still stuck on Jul 18th.
This is worse than last year because of the introduction of Edge to the dashboard. Now the dashboard requires 4 aligned runs as opposed to 3. Often, we get a run with Edge being aligned with FF & Chrome, or Safari being aligned, but rarely both.
It would be nice to solve this issue. If we could somehow schedule Edge runs in sync with Safari, that would be nice!

Research direction
Start with the experimental dashboard and read the related suggestion in issue 3689. The issue does not name files, tests, or an entry point; investigate how aligned runs are scheduled and define a change that produces more frequent alignments, especially between Edge and Safari, while advancing the dashboard beyond Jul 18th.
