 Replying to [comment:36 robertwb]:
 > You're talking about the {{{check_with_tolerance}}} function and
 helpers. One could add a variable to keep track of this and conditionally
 emit it; not sure if the added complexity is worth the tiny savings.

 Added complexity? One boolean variable, initialized to false and set to
 `True` in only a few places?

 This not only reduces the file size and run (import!) time but also avoids
 more potential name clashes.

 Why should one add useless code to each and every file to doctest not
 using `# tol`?
