The ideal answer I was hoping to hear was

    The current implementation of the refresh_cache() function might
    not, but there is no guarantee that it will stay so.  We may add
    more calls that may (or may not) need to access the error
    message table before this early return.  Setting the porcelain
    messages before making any calls to any functions in the API and
    unsetting after we are done is a much better code structure.

;-)
