//
  // The job controller creates pods with a finalizer. When a pod terminates
  // (succeeded or failed), the controller does three steps to account for it
  // in the job status:
  //
  // 1. Add the pod UID to the arrays in this field.
  // 2. Remove the pod finalizer.
  // 3. Remove the pod UID from the arrays while increasing the corresponding
  //     counter.
  //

  // finalizers is a shared field, any actor with permission can reorder it.
  // If the finalizer list is processed in order, then this can lead to a situation
  // in which the component responsible for the first finalizer in the list is
  // waiting for a signal (field value, external system, or other) produced by a
  // component responsible for a finalizer later in the list, resulting in a deadlock.
