    /// When the target object is no larger than `InplaceBuffer`, the
    /// small-object optimization can be used by storing the target directly
    /// within the `InplaceBuffer`.

    /// Note that union members other than `d_object_p` are just fillers to

    /// hold modestly complex functors, like `bdlf::Bind` objects and other
    /// functors that store embedded arguments, eliminating the need to
    /// allocate memory from the heap for the footprint of such objects.
