Yes, but I think it conveys much less useful information than before;
you have to guess how the word will be used in the future if reused
and you may well end up with a call to this word followed by a drop.

I have the same issue when I use a mutable structure in my code. When
the topmost parameter on the stack is an assoc, should I let it on the
stack or use keep at the calling site? I prefer the later.
