 The return value of `get_the_terms` only says it returns an array. To me,
 this implies that it is an array of terms, beginning at index 0. In fact,
 it is closer to an associative array, using the term's ID as the key. Some
 documentation to this effect would be very useful. Or returning a simple
 array.

 Expected return value:
 {{{
 array(1) {
   [0]=>
   object(stdClass)#1032 (10) {
     ["term_id"]=>
     string(4) "1274"
     ["name"]=>
     string(10) "Staff Blog"
     ["slug"]=>
     string(5) "blogs"
     ["term_group"]=>
     string(1) "0"
     ["term_taxonomy_id"]=>
     string(4) "1284"
     ["taxonomy"]=>
     string(13) "ars_post_type"
     ["description"]=>
     string(0) ""
     ["parent"]=>
     string(1) "0"
     ["count"]=>
     string(2) "52"
     ["object_id"]=>
     string(6) "266909"
   }
 }
 }}}

 Actual return value:
 {{{
 array(1) {
   [1274]=>
   object(stdClass)#1032 (10) {
     ["term_id"]=>
     string(4) "1274"
     ["name"]=>
     string(10) "Staff Blog"
     ["slug"]=>
     string(5) "blogs"
     ["term_group"]=>
     string(1) "0"
     ["term_taxonomy_id"]=>
     string(4) "1284"
     ["taxonomy"]=>
     string(13) "ars_post_type"
     ["description"]=>
     string(0) ""
     ["parent"]=>
     string(1) "0"
     ["count"]=>
     string(2) "52"
     ["object_id"]=>
     string(6) "266909"
   }
 }
 }}}
