      * Initializer: inject EventManager instance

-     * If we have an event manager composed already, make sure it gets injected
-     * with the shared event manager.
+     * Set a new event manager injected with the shared event manager.
      *
-     * The AbstractController lazy-instantiates an EM instance, which is why
-     * the shared EM injection needs to happen; the conditional will always
-     * pass.

+     * conditional will always pass.
+     *
+     * This works because we fetch the EventManager via the container
+     * (ServiceManager).  So it gets built by the EventManagerFactory,
+     * which injects the SharedEventManager via EventManager's constructor.
