ehehe... yes, please ignore, that's some copy/paste error during
the rebase...

and I also forgot the update of my previous comment... yours is
quite accurate.

I wrote it in the cover letter. I had an offline chat with Chris

reader knows better about the size and usage of the guard.

Does it make sense?

Thanks a lot!
