If we end up hitting the checker while testing, then yeah it would spew.

But I thought this was mainly about testing the DP code, making sure we
can up/down links, train at different parameters, etc, not about going
through full mode sets all the time...

But either way, I agree we should be documenting this behavior so we
don't get stuck trying to figure it out later.
