You used that argument in January to explain why the coupling should be
reduced and now the same argument to put it back again.

When you review my code, you make many useful suggestions and I am very
thankful. Testing can't find out some of those things. My feeling is
that you are now concentrating on things that are optional, yet will
have a huge potential for negative impact. If I could please draw your
review efforts to other parts of the patch, I would be happy to return
to these parts later.
