Hi Lee,

You make an excellent point, however I'm pretty sure it doesn't apply in
this situation.  Your example is apples to oranges from what we are talking
about here.  Can we find (or even just imagine) a case where this would
break something?  I can't myself.  I don't want to argue just for the sake
of arguing.  This fix is not changing behavior like the example you cite.
 It just sets up guard rails to prevent us from going into an "ill- or
un-defined" zone of control theory that everyone recognizes is bad and not
useful.  What is proposed is analogous to adding divide by zero or null
pointer reference protection -- nothing more than guard rails to keep us out
of bad areas we shouldn't be in anyway.

Regards,

Curt.
