e2e preloads `AllowedE2EImages` into Kind via `localkube.LoadImage` in `SetupSuite`. Specs that use any other image fail at fixture load. Smoke fixtures still use `nginx:latest`, so Helm still sets `imagePullPolicy: Always`. That flakes on registry rate limits even after preload. Pin a digest (or a fixed tag, not `latest`) on the e2e smoke images. Change the fixture and allowlist only; do not change product defaults. Related: #30 (CLI `cluster load-image`; e2e already calls `Manager.LoadImage` directly).
