Record some notes about "innocuous" transformations

I wondered if some transformations (ticks) might be "innocuous",
in the sense that they do not unlock a later transformation that
does not occur in the same pass.  If so, we could refrain from
bumping the overall tick-count for such innocuous transformations,
and perhaps terminate the simplifier one pass earlier.

BUt alas I found that virtually nothing was innocuous!  This
commit just adds a Note to record what I learned, in case
anyone wants to try again.
