No worries. I'm not totally clear on what you're asking for though: do you 
meant that you'd like the SEQ_START_TOKEN logic to only be present for 
pi_start, or to pull out the logic currently in pi_next into another function 
and call it from both, or?

In my mind, pi_start is really just a special case of pi_next, so the code flow 
makes sense to me. I'm happy to change it to whatever you like, but it's not 
immediately obvious to me what that is :-)
