The idea is to return, if not die(), from the iteration we are doing in that function, whether the branch is checked out in any worktree. That information allows us later, if we know in advance that no HEAD needs to be adjusted, to avoid calling replace_each_worktree_head_symref(), saving us a new and unnecessary traversal of the worktrees. There is a second idea to, in next commits, return also if the branch is an unborn branch. die_if_branch_is_in_use() is a better name for reject_rebase_or_... but don't know how it fits with these ideas. I'm open to suggestions. I'll reroll with a better approach. Thank you.
