 Review comment:
   I think a more OO approach to this would be to define a state machine over 
the possible states that has the  set of valid transitions and will log 
validations if trying to perform an invalid transition. This would also give an 
explicit description of the valid transitions and the mental model behind it. 
The set of possible states here is rather small, but I observed a similar 
"problem" in the execution graph where the set of states and their transitions 
is more complex. I feel like this is a more maintainable and readable approach.
