You’re responding to a comment containing a method call `thing.makeThingDoerForTest(1, 2, 3)` and saying “That's the trick - it is not test only code.” Can you square those for me? I don’t get it.
Where are you from that you consider all of these groups to have the same pronunciation?

Sure, but at the time that Apple made the decision, they had $0.0 trillion in billings and sales.
But if you’re constantly pinging the container (as suggested above), it will never scale to zero.
