How does that make it more obvious?

None of these replace the default behavior of their hookee functions.
They _add_ something to it. The default behavior is not in the hook,
it's in the code that calls the hook.
And anyway, I said "normally", so a couple of examples to the contrary
doesn't yet invalidate what I said.

It sounds like we have some deep disagreement about what the hooks are
for. You want a hook to _remove_ some behaviors, but that's not what
hooks are for.

Which is clearly wrong with some URIs.
Please let's not go that way.
