I did :-)

fileloop.el:

    (defun fileloop-continue ()

    >> +    (if (ring-empty-p ring)
    >> +        ;; Just in case we were in a fileloop sequence

Itʼs perfectly deterministic, just potentially confusing :-)

It begs the question why xrefs replaced a 'do the next thing' type
binding with a 'go back' type binding in the first place. Iʼm tempted
to say that xref-pop-marker-stack should use a different binding, and
M-, should be fileloop-continue, but the xref one has existed for 5
years now.
