I think I added it here because block jobs have the tendency to rewrite
the backing chain (think active commit, for example, which reduces the
backing chain).  Forcing a redetermination is therefore a way to ensure
no stale data associated with the pre-job chain is left in memory.

So I'm not sure this is correct.
