I'm expecting to have explicit wrapping type annotations soon[1], but for
the atomics, it's kind of a wash on how intrusive the annotations get. I
had originally wanted to mark the function (as I did in other cases)
rather than using the helper, but Mark preferred it this way. I'm happy
to do whatever! :)
