It changes code. Any bugfix in the surrounding code would have to fix a
conflict. That is nonzero effort. Is it a huge risk? No, it is very
small risk and a very small cost to fix such a conflict; but my claim is
that this change has zero benefit, therefore we should not incur a
nonzero future effort.
