I don't think we can selectively move particular rewrites before scrutiny,
that's what I was getting at; scrutiny is just one big operation that
runs once, and optimizations happen in a loop.

Yeah, it would be great to make use of that.

That's what I mean.  So I think (for now at least?) we're "stuck" with
doing it like you suggested, but then the rewrite is unnecessary (for the
most part?).
