Joseph (or Rob), what's the benefit of this change; what works with it
and/or what breaks without it?

Rob, if I did apply this change, and you also apply that series of
yours, what is the result: compile-time breakage, run-time breakage,
just some redundant code that needs to be removed again?

Thanks.
