Well, the main reason is that if you know LAXTSFIRST is assertable, you want to
assert it for all instances of that policy so when we check for alternatives
later (incoming server side, we don't know which alternative is being used
yet), that would apply to wherever that policy is used. Thus, we normally spin
through and mark all of them asserted.
