It appears to me we have some redundancy here.

Are the magic spots, right? And I'm not convinced its right.

Suppose I have two events in my context, and I created them 1 minute
apart. Then their respective tstamp_enabled are 1 minute apart as well.
But the above doesn't seem to preserve that difference.

A similar argument can be made for running I think. That is a per event
value and cannot be passed along to the ctx and back.
