Yeah that doesn't make sense. What I meant "it's neither needed for CR-removal,
nor for removal of other potential whitespace". I will rewrite the paragraph to:

Apart from whitespace added and removed in quote.c, no other whitespaces
are expected. While it is technically possible, we have never advertised
this file to be editable by user, or encouraged them to do so. As a
consequence, the parsing of BISECT_NAMES is tightened by removing
strbuf_trim().
