   I am hesitant to add an easily accessible "fundamentally break this sketch" 
option. Using a fixed seed across all sketches in a run, for instance, means 
we've violated the core assumptions that allow for mergeability, namely that 
each individual sketch was created independently. If they all follow the same 
pattern of compaction, that's not true.
   
   I'd really like to see a mathematical proof providing a bound on how much of 
an effect it has.
