As far as I can tell the comment matches how the system behaves.  I'm 
not sure if that much entropy is useful.  I was poking around for a bit 
to try and figure that out, but after reading that comment at the top of

remember to pick it up right after the merge window, but with Plumbers 
things might be a bit clunky.
