Understood.

I would rather honor the original when it is not clearly wrong,
misleading to readers or prone to misunderstanding.  Hence, I'd
rather not change this particular one.

And also this one.

Everything else in this patch is improving what is clearly wrong and
is very much appreciated, though.

Just a reminder, as I do not know your cultural background so ryenus
in all lowercase may be your real name, in which case please ignore
this part of the response, but Documentation/SubmittingPatches says

    [[real-name]]
    Also notice that a real name is used in the Signed-off-by: line. Please
    don't hide your real name.

about the Signed-off-by: line.

Thanks.
