True. As to the specific topic of using "for (int i = 0; ...)", it is tedious to review for mistakes and 17000+ lines of patch is not a way to do so. I do not think I would be able to spot a change in behaviour caused by a hunk like this int i = 3; ... after some operations ... - for (i = 0; i < 5; i++) + for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) if (condition_on_i(i)) break; ... after some operations ... return i; after scanning similar changes for 1000+ times in a single huge patch.
