Only if you want to be dead sure of course. If you want to handle that a
bit more sloppy then you can just rely on the numb3rs. And numb3rs
shouldnt be everything here. Like you said comments are also a very good
way to check the quality. Or we bring trust-rings into play. I trust 
Pascal. You trust me. So you trust Pascal also.

There are so many ways to cherry pick for quality.....
