I've been periodically revising/rewording my comments since I saw you're
original comments to Brijesh a few versions back, but it's how I normally
talk when discussing code with people so it keeps managing to sneak back in.
I've added a git hook to check for this and found other instances that need
fixing as well, so hopefully with the help of technology I can get them all
sorted for the next spin.
