The commit title only conveys that the include is unused and the action to therefore remove it. The motivation is actually to create target independent objects and the specific reasoning here is that not only is this include file unnecessary, but forces per target builds. This is exactly the "barrier to entry" I mention to Peter, it's obvious to the experts in the crowd, but it provides no underlying direction for those who might be more novice. There is always some reasoning that can be included in a commit log beyond the simple "a therefore b" of the commit title. Thanks, Alex
