Thanks that you "dare" to express also such an opinion.

When you find such a change opportunity so "bad", are there any circumstances
left over where you would dare to touch the corresponding source code line.

I follow your concern to some degree.

But can this argument evolve against a lot of changes generally?

Did this really "happen" because of an update suggestion for this software module?

Can the proposed adjustment help to make a function like "setup_conf"
a bit more robust (together with related update steps) so that an improved
coding style compliance will hopefully influence the error probability
in positive ways?

How does such a kind of general feedback fit to the shown change
possibilities in this patch series?

Do you reject this update step?
