First of all, the issue would bite ANYONE trying to run this on OAS. This way, you won't have to spend a week debugging it, and since it's kinda hard to Google, it's not necessarily so that people will find it otherwise. Second, subclassing is not a good solution when the method can be overridden, but all the original behavior in that method needs to be retained. As you see, this logic needs to happen in a place that is inconvenient to extend by subclassing. Anyway - it doesn't incur any real overhead for other users anyway.
