+    ///    * Establishing `tmp1` creates a reference into the
+    ///      matched place. This code is emitted by
+    ///      [`Self::bind_matched_candidate_for_guard`].
+    ///
+    ///    * `tmp2` is only initialized "lazily", after we have
+    ///      checked the guard. Thus, the code that can trigger
+    ///      moves out of the candidate can only fire after the
+    ///      guard evaluated to true. This initialization code is
+    ///      emitted by [`Self::bind_matched_candidate_for_arm_body`].
+    ///
+    /// 2. Binding by-reference: Things are tricky.
+    ///
+    ///    * Here, the guard expression wants a `&&` or `&&mut`
+    ///      into the original input. This means we need to borrow
+    ///      the reference that we create for the arm.
+    ///    * So we eagerly create the reference for the arm and then take a
