Yes, I understand it.

I was not complaining about the "who cares, we will exit after we are d=
one
with this processing anyway" attitude in this code.  I think it is a
reasonable approach to take because it is not likely that this codepath=
 to
change and would start wanting to access the original command table aft=
er
it did its munging.  I was suggesting a positive improvement to the pat=
ch
by making it explicitly documented to help people polish further, that'=
s
all.  You do not have to be so defensive.
