You're once more completely missing my point.  You've got a conditional
which detects if the button is pressed in which you set a flag which is
checked later to see if you should also schedule the work.  Since the
only thing that ever sets that flag is the button being pressed having
the flag seems pointless, you may as well just schedule the work instead
of setting the flag.
