Cleaning up old code is also worth something, even if does not change

Quite insignificant clean up it is that does more harm that gives any
benefit as any new change adds debt to backporting.

Anyway, this has been a useful patch set for me in the sense that I have
clearer picture now on discarding/accepting commits.

Indeed. I have now a better understanding for why some code looks as ugly a=
