  I think the upstream has a higher barrier about implementation details. A lot 
of fb extensions need to be partially or completely rewritten before going 
upstream. I'm not sure if evolve is somehow an exception. But it does not feel 
quite right especially because your approach has known hard-to-solve defect and 
there are known better alternatives.

  I'm not going to the sprint this time unfortunately. But if you have 
//concrete// examples where effect-flag is better in theory, I'd be happy to 
discuss them here.

  Since you have admitted the defect without giving a solution, and did not 
response to the alternative I proposed, I'm still -1 on this series. I have 
marked it explicitly hopefully to make other reviewers' life easier.
  
  I think what I proposed is not hard to implement (I can complete it in 3 work 
days), so if you can help implement it instead, that'll be great and I'll be 
happy to provide technical help for any difficulty you encounter.
