The same thing with suspend routines. If something auxliary which isn't strictly necessary in reaching suspend state fails, the failure should be ignored. Running static code analysis to locate trivial irregularities and performing identity transformations is fine, even great, but you're changing the behavior here without actually understanding what's going on. Please don't do these things automatically.
