Makes sense. I renamed it to ComputeConstantLengths; as this will reflect
that it's more than a getter function, and it's doing actual work. Compute
also seems more consistent with other function names we have out there.

That did cross my mind. I agree with this.
Both of those changes belong in 0002. See the attached v7.
