Follow-up Comment #10, bug #67363 (group groff):

I'm not claiming that this particular commit causes any particular problem.

What i was trying to say is that overengineering in general causes both design
oversights and implementation glitches, both of which then tend to cause work,
and the difficulty of both finding root causes and fixing them generally
increases with the degree of overengineering, too.  Not every instance of
overengineering causes bugs, but the total number of bugs certainly scales (at
least slightly) more than linearily with the amount of overengineering, so it
really matters to keep overengineering down as much as possible.  I certainly
do sense overengineering here.
