While I appreciate the excuse for not taking immediate and hasty
action, I have two problems with your analysis.
* I am not yet convinced that it is _not_ by accident that git
ended up choosing the nicer choice of the two.
* Even if it does always choose the nicer choice of the two,
Tony was lucky (no pun intended). Rather, we were lucky that
Tony was observant. A careless merger may well have easily
missed this mismerge (from the human point of view).
