Thanks for checking and fixing this!

Yes, it makes sense, a clone without a subsequent new insertion
wouldn't have a scratchpad otherwise -- I wonder how I missed this.
Just perhaps:

I would use another label for this, "out_scratch_aligned", for
consistency with the rest of the error handling, but it's not a strong
preference.
