Many of us have developed software for a similar period of time,
and yet feel differently.
We may have had different experiences working on different kinds of
programs in different ways.

How much will you gain by cross-jumping these calls? When you use

fancy_abort? If so, I suppose there would not really be an
opportunity to cross-jump any calls to abort.
