Thanks.

This is certainly smaller, but see below.

Agreed, but I don't think that case should happen for stage-2 mappings.
That's why I prefer my diff here, as it makes that 'old == new' logic
specific to the hyp mappings.

But I'll leave it all up to you (these diffs are only intended to be
helpful).
