That's a fair point, Pinaki.  That is, don't make a lot of these "code
relaxations" until we're sure that they are needed.  Don't get carried
away.  Make them as needed.  Don't make them just because we think we need
them.  That way, we can be clearer on the intent of the changes as we commit
them.  Makes sense.
