I wondered about that too, but the evidence of existing callers is
that nobody cares.  If we did make the code do something like that,
(a) I don't think your fragment is right, and (b) we'd need to rewrite
the function's comment to explain it.  I'm not seeing a reason to
think it's worth spending effort on.
