-	// currently it is a work hypothesis that, when interacting with the UI, this should not be needed

+	// Long version: Informers use a Reflector to pull data from a ListWatcher and push it into a DeltaFIFO.
+	// Concurrently, they pop data off the DeltaFIFO to fire registered handlers, and also to keep an updated
+	// copy of the known state of all objects (in an Indexer).
+	// The resync period option here is passed from Informer to Reflector to periodically (re)-push all known
+	// objects to the DeltaFIFO. That causes the periodic (re-)firing all registered handlers.
+	// In this case we are not registering any handlers to this particular informer, so re-syncing is a no-op.
+	// We therefore just disable it right away.
