This refactorings clearly separates the first and subsequent creation execution
of the `template` instruction. This approach has the following benefits:
- it is clear what happens during the first vs. subsequent executions;
- we can avoid several memory reads and checks after the first creation pass
(there is measurable performance improvement on various benchmarks);
- the template instructions becomes smaller and should become a candidate
for optimisations / inlining faster;
