Dunno what others think, this seems useless churn to me.

Eh, and right here it is when things snowball and now the whole tree is
under duress because of a consistency argument of dubious value.
Heck, I see even fixing typos as problematic, because there comes the
time when somebody needs to make a backpatch and they find there's a
conflict to fix because of a typo fix. IMO if you really want to fix
typos, then the committer should apply such fixes to all live branches
where they apply, so that any later backpatching is not bothered by it.
If you're patching the source code for other reasons, then by all means
fix inconsistencies, typos, etc all you want. Otherwise, please leave
things alone _or_ backpatch such fixes.
