+      # not use the auto-rolled pin because there's no way for the autoroller
+      # to test the actual release flow, so changes would still show up in
+      # post-submit. A manually-rolled pin means that any changes here must be
+      # made deliberately, so that the person updating it knows to watch the
+      # next actual auto-release to ensure that it works, and knows to revert
+      # the change if it doesn't.
