This didn't jump out at me until looking at the consumer side.
This overlays two different sets of functionality depending on whether
an option is given to the macro or not, which feels semantically
suboptimal to me (i.e. it makes my head hurt).

Could we split this into two macros - one that inserts the instruction
and one that inserts the note, and expand the latter in the former?
