There do need a follow-up [PATCH {4,5,6}/3] that cannot be done mechanically, though, before the result can be called "this script has been cleaned up and new people are encouraged to mimick the way it does things". That way, we can keep the mechanically good bits that are early in the series while polishing the later bits that need human judgement.
