Yeah noticed that too; I think those other calls are technically OK
because the call can't fail when writing to a CD entry that was
previously written (it can only fail on allocation of a leaf table).
It's also not obvious how those callers could gracefully handle this.
I'd prefer keeping this commit as close to the existing behavior as
possible.
