(Ignoring the ad hominem attack. Ideas please, not
people.)
I tried to understand it. I looked at the patch and
the source code. I asked what files this applies to.
I got no explanation of what this really does (or why).
Is it so obvious what the effect is? It wasn't/isn't
to me.
And I said from the very beginning that I wasn't sure
I understand it, and I asked for clarification.
I responded to the question asking if anyone has a
problem with the proposed change, by saying that IF
my understanding of it is correct (and I stated my
understanding) THEN yes, I would object.
FWIW, Eli too asked what the benefits are - what this
is really for. Haven't seen an answer to that either.
(I'm not suggesting that Eli, like me, had difficulty
understanding what this does.)
