It's a bit odd to replace the comment like that. Perhaps instead of
replacing it, just extend it with the note about the lifetime?

Why don't we need a reference here? It's perhaps unlikely, because this
function is short-lived, but the otherwise last reference to this could
go away at any point after this line and cause sp to become invalid.

In general it's very rare to not have to keep a reference to a reference
counted object.

Same here. Or am I missing some other way by which it is ensured that
the reference stays around?

Generally I like this because it makes the handling of syncpoints much
more consistent.
