It really is a minor thing. I tend to have classes "eat their own dogfood" -
IOW, utilize internally the public interface that they publish (why? because if
a change is made to the logic in addTrueString() then the lazy initializer will
already be using it). A lot of people don't do that. No big deal. It does not
cause any harm here, but it appears there are bigger battles to fight with this
and I'll choosek my battles carefully ;-)
