I was puzzled by this:

 Record Delay: A pitcher warp stage delays the record until it has been
 written by the catcher.

So I tried it:

 pipe literal asdf|a:chop 2|warp A|cons                
  /a:|b:dam|cons /warp A|b:|insert 'warped ' before|cons
 df                                                    
 warped as                                             
 Ready;                                                

Wondering what happened to my delayed record on the pitcher's output, I
played around a little more and eventually found this:

 A pitcher will terminate without consuming the record if the catcher
 no longer exi[s]ts or cannot write the record.

So the pitcher really doesn't ever delay the record at all, but the
catcher may delay it indefinitely, right?
