Looks like there are only a few places where these are called without an array, we could change it to always take an array but this works too...

Thanks Kris. Calling out that we'd love to see this uplifted to 54 given the improvement it causes in tests with Screenshots enabled.

Screenshots will go live in Fx55 so we don't have to uplift these patches in 54. Beta54-. Mark 54 won't fix.
