Ah, you are right. Though in that case I think, if the loop has N
iterations, the number of binds is N and the number of unbinds will be (N -
1). Is it worth fixing that? Basically I think we might need to add a bind
outside the first iteration of the loop so that we have an unbind in the
first iteration itself. Then we will have N binds and N unbinds I think.
