 So it's a minor issue about specifications, not a big deal.  Doing
 something against the Python specifications isn't an issue if you're
 trying to avoid complete crashes of Sage.

 It's like airbags: sure, people might have hearing problems because of an
 airbag deployment, but that's a minor issue compared to what the airbag
 prevents.
