+            Refaster rules are interpreted by the `refaster-runner` module),
+            but the `OptionalOrElseGet` bug checker defined by this module
+            depends on the `RequiresComputation` matcher that
+            `refaster-support` primarily exposes for use by Refaster rules.
+            Review this setup. (Should the matchers be moved elsewhere?) -->
