The only real difference is the suite used as the source; britney
translates approve hints in to unblock hints internally anyway[1].
There's a couple of other bits like the excuses output being different,
but I should finish my tpu-handling rework so that the excuses handling
is triggered from the suite instead. At that point, /no-one/ needs to
care. :-)
