Review Comment:
Oh, I see. Yes, that helps clarify. Thanks! The difference I missed is that
we never start updating the competitive iterator until the queue fills in the
current code, so it doesn't matter that these byte arrays are initialized as
zeros, but now it does matter because `null` has meaning in the case of the
competitive iterator update. OK got it. Thanks for walking me through it :)
