 ## An inline template skips the cycle fence
 
 `New` proves the loaded tree acyclic, an inline node is a finite tree of its own, and
-nothing in the tree can reference it, so no render of it reaches itself. Every other
-fence runs over both, from one `binding.bind`, except that struct tags leave column
