You are not presenting this one line in its context. No one will be  
able to tell you whether that is necessary wherever it is mentioned,  
because no one knows the stuff you omitted.

In normal situations "getObject" is all you need. I don't know any  
standard situation where you would not want the returned object  
acquisition-wrapped.
