Instead of expanding I'd go for replacing?

I'd say the user is tempted for 2 choices,
a) aborting (for various reasons)
b) fix and continue.

So we'd want to point out the way for those two ways and not
give an additional arbitrary way that is not quite (b) but goes that
direction?

I realize this is what the patch does, but I wanted to point out the difference
on expanding vs replacing. I think a 4 line hint is "enough", so I'd object
adding more lines, but changing existing lines is great!
