The fact that sane_unset() outside of a test caused a hiccup in your reading of the patch which led you to dig through the mail archive and spend time writing about it in your review could be interpreted as yet another argument against its use outside of tests (specifically, it wastes reviewer time). Of course, it's such a minor thing, though, not at all worth a re-roll.
