The thing that would convince me is that in outgoing migration there are some resources you might wish to skip cleanup of if they need to be preserved in some manner for the dst host. IIUC we don't currently have a way to indicate that the "stopped" hook is in response to an outgoing migration, and the "reason" would provide this. With that justification though, I would now query the asymmetry of only providing 'reason' to the 'stopped' hook. It should be provided to *all* the hooks - prepare, start, started, stop, stopped, release.
