If you *do* squash the top two commits due to the surprisingly expensive
--medium check level, what is the whole point of the series?

That is, if I can have a reasonably thorough check only by passing an
option to 'git fsck', then why would I want to choose --medium when I can
have --full for only a 30% higher price (according to the timings you gave)?
