Out of curiosity, why would we ever want to base any patches on `seen`?
I understand there are some very rare edge-cases where it might be
appropriate to base patches on `next` (where the series based on
many, many other topics) but I'm not sure if I know of any situations
where it'd make sense to base topics on `seen`.

Thanks,

Denton
