Based on the git history it appears that this condition is impossible to
satisfy for more than 10 years. If that is so we need to first assess if
we even want to make this code active, given that it wans't a problem
for such a long time.
It's also possible that it became impossible to reach after a change
outside of the context I've checked, but either way it should not be
blindly fixed even if it appears to be what the author intended
originally
