No, I spoke correctly.

Though perhaps unclearly: by "it's a bug either way," I mean if you are
running an unbounded loop without pool cleanups, you have a bug. If you
notice this bug because a file handle doesn't get cleaned up, then
that's your fault, not the fault of the function which left a file
handle to be closed by pool cleanup.
