We had a somewhat lengthy discussion previously where one of the
conclusions was that we'd have that check in both places even though
it's redundant. Iirc the reason was that though they're doing the same
test they're doing so to answer different questions, so we should have
the test in both places (or something along those lines).
Ok, that is reasonable. But from my POW the edge between the meaning of
those checks is quiet blurred.
Thanks!
