I don't know, but then I'm biased because I know what that specific bit
combination means.  I guess someone that doesn't know is going to be
surprised by seeing both lock strength bits together .. but maybe
they're just going to have a look at htup_details.h and instantly
understand what's going on.  Not sure how likely that is.
