I don't understand this objection either. In cases where a single
line causes ANY error, my general response is to fix the error, so
that if that first error had suppressed detection of a second, the
second error would be discovered anyway.

I don't understand the comment either.

In fact, this is not a subject on which I have any particular
preference, and am perfectly open to this sort of modification.
