Nop, simplifycfg does all that so it makes these changes useless, and it is better at doing that than what I managed to
do.But I've not looked at the impact on simplifycfg runtime, having less work to do may make it a tiny bit faster, and
Ialso still have some edge cases I want to try regarding the impact of simplifycfg.
