That is fair. It is a big chunk:). I'll put the trivial patches together
to avoid having an 18 commits to instead have 8. This is my proposal

Why? I do not think we should remove it because it is what the change to

Thx for pointing this out. Was not aware of this quirk in net code. Will
include it for my next version.

Did you mean reuse variable here? What does this mean?
