 <1> When the `tree()` is created, vertex 3 and 5 are unique and thus, form unique branches in the tree structure.
 <2> When the `tree()` is `by()`-modulated by `label`, then vertex 3 and 5 are both "software" and thus are merged to a single node in the tree.
 
+The `tree()` step can also take a side-effect key as an argument. When using this form, the `Tree` is constructed
+lazily, such that it becomes possible to assess its contents as each traverser passes through.

+You can use `cap()` step to force `tree()` to consume the traversal stream eagerly and output results similar to prior
+examples.
