These are functions that are being called so keeping them separate as
the code you removed did makes it "obvious" what is happening here.

So can you keep it that way please?

But my larger question is do these functions create state or allocate
memory that needs to be unwound properly if an error does happen?  Right
now the function seems to not be doing that at all, but that does not
mean it is correct as-is...

thanks,
