The point I was hinting at is that abstract lexical distance isn't necessarily a valid metric for how similar two snippets of code appear to be, resp. how easy it is to make hard-to-find mistakes in a hurry.
On a related note – and please do not take this as a personal attack, but rather as a suggestion how your participation in online discussions might become more, uhm, fruitful – I sometimes wonder if you deliberately try _not_ to understand other people.
