Reworded that sentence.

True, fixed in V2.

Yes, although now that I look at it again, I believe as soon as we
finish the do-while, we know that the round is over, so I believe we can
just put a single region_leave there. Fixed in V2.

That works, but then we also need an additional region_leave in the
FETCH_SEND_REQUEST case where we jump directly to FETCH_GET_PACK. I'm
not sure which way is more intuitive, but I've gone with your suggestion
for V2.
