I do not know offhand if we need the code update to implement what
Peff called "maybe it is not super important", but if we decide not
to, at least it would help future developers to document the fact
that we were aware of the issue when the code was developed, and why
we decided not to address it (in other words, describe why we
decided it is not super important).

Thanks both for polishing the series and making it better.
