After checking the codes, I find out that the number of watermark usages is
even larger than that of their updates (i.e., each update is followed by at
least one usage). Considering that the number of usage may increase in the
future, I suggest to keep this check in the update method. Of course, it would
be better if we can use a "safer" initial value for
the watermarkð. What do you think?
