[cgiapp] a question about the order of operations

[punkish <suppressed>]

I read OrderOfOperations at
http://twiki.med.yale.edu/twiki2/bin/view/CGIapp/OrderOfOperations

The following is the summary of the order of ops.

my $webapp = WebApp->new();
  1. cgiapp_init()
  2. setup()

if (everything is copacetic)

$webapp->run();
  3. cgiapp_prerun()
  4. the main instance runmode
  5. cgiapp_postrun()
  6. teardown()
else
  kaboom


so, here is my question.

seems like 1 and 2 will always run in that order, and then, hopefully,
3..6 will always run in that order. Now, if A and B will always run in
that order, they are really the same as AB. I can understand the point
of separating 3, 4, and 5..6 because 3 onward will _only_ happen under
a certain condtion (code being error free), and 4 is really
representative of possibly many things that I might do based on one
runmode, however, once again, if 5 and 6 are always going to run in
that order, then they may as well be one thing.

In other words, I could rephrase the above order as 

my $webapp = WebApp->new();
  1. cgiapp_init_and_ setup()

if (everything is copacetic)

$webapp->run();
  2. cgiapp_prerun()
  3. the main instance runmode
  4. cgiapp_postrun_and_ teardown()
else
  kaboom

if my logic is correct, why the verbosity. If not, please enlighten me
and correct me as necessary.
