Yeah that can also work, but we still need to be careful about the
alignment of that one tuple, otherwise, there will could be different
free space on the fifth page. The probably easier way could be to use
an even number of integers in the table say(int, int). Anyway, for
now, I have avoided the dependency on FSM contents without losing on
coverage of test. I have pushed my latest suggestion in the previous
email.
