In practice, I've never seen dirvish-expire fail, except when there was
some problem that would also stop dirvish-runall, so I suspect the
difference is moot. I guess one's attitude depends how vital taking a
backup is versus how easy to clean up the mess when something goes wrong.

I don't know either :) It's not normally an issue, but would be if the
running order were reversed.
