I suppose it's an exercise for the optimizer to practice the common
subexpression elimination, and reduce that to one call.
Nah, I think I fixed this in my own tree, but didn't commit that yet.

Of course we can, but it's not really needed.

The disadvantage of using templates for everything is that it increases
compilation time. In this case, I think it's not really necessary to do it.
But once again, if you feel it's important, go ahead and do it.
I rather see that you use the templates in areas where it is needed more ;-)
