You misread me. I do not want to see us having to add
"disable_this_feature = 1" next to that "delta_search_thread = 1"
in this block, and then supporting code to actually disable that
feature, only to support this block. You are declaring that "to
support this mode, we must always have a way to produce a
byte-for-byte identical output and keep supporting it forever".
