It was mostly surprise as I just have a preference for setting up
everything and then letting it go; fire-and-forget style. So that was
what I was expecting to see. It should basically be the difference of
adding a single function to merge the fences (albeit you have to write
that function). Shall we say both patterns have merit / analogues to the
real world?
