Yes that is true the shared buffer might change but only "after" the CS. I
mean those changes can't affect partial match for current Computation State.
Therefore I would suggest to remove the flag completely and just keep the lazy
evaluation of `matchedEvents` in `ConditionContext` by comparing it to null:
if (matchedEvents == null) {
this.matchedEvents = nfa.extractCurrentMatches(sharedBuffer,
computationState);
}
