I am not hijacking anything.  I am the one who filed this bug report.

And I proposed a simple fix for it from the outset - a minor correction of what Juri had already coded and along the lines of what has been done in the past.

You proposed a different fix.  Fine.  But you gave no reason - nothing about any problems with the more usual approach or any advantages of your new approach.

I asked about that.  I am interested in learning the advantages of your novel approach of (IIUC) advising a single hook function as a substitute for allowing for a sequence of hook functions.

I did not say that your solution is not a good one.  I assume the contrary, in fact.  I am asking to understand why you think it is a better one.  That's all.

Understanding this can help with other code as well, presumably.  Is there a reason why you do not want to share your understanding?
