[JZ] Should we call xa_destroy instead here?
We could, if we expect the xarray to potentially not be empty.
From what I understand - all minors should be released at this point.
[JZ] In practice,  adding destroy here will be better.
Why do you say that?
[JZ] In case, the future, INIT adds something, need DESTROY to free completely.
