 if you can wrap them with a StageChain and create a separate class
 that has multiple stages because *StageChain* separates the multiple
 stages, that would be better.

 however it is not strictly necessary to do that: there's nothing
 to stop an individual stage having 2+ clock latency.

 the only thing is: anything that is not full combinatorial *cannot*
 then later be wrapped with StageChain, it *has* to be embedded in
 a full pipe class.
