Actually not quite. I'd really like to avoid duplicating timestamp
logic in skip_reason and prune(), and only implement it once, so
perhaps the way to do it is to have a helper function that returns a
dict:

{'verdict': True, 'reason' : "explanation here"}

Then function callers can pick and use the entries they need.
