Github user zwoop commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/trafficserver/pull/554#issuecomment-214505724 It's unfortunate because it couple internal state in the SM to the milestones, which are timing events.

It's sort of a violation of encapsulation, or even depending on side effects as a feature.
