Once a transducer is completed it should never be called again. This is why
transduce takes both a transducer and a reducing function and combines them
internally. The thought here is that it will be harder to shoot yourself in
the foot by reusing a stateful reducing function if you don't have to
combine the xf with the rf manually.
