Compared to what? We can't leave the bug in the code. We can't go back
to precise GC. The pure symbol-name thing is a hacky workaround, and
there may be other bugs lurking. It's either this or removing pure
storage, and at least this code is already written and maintains
resource consumption at 24.3 levels.
