It's entirely possible that the shortcuts it takes correspond to what makes a more cohesive thing to present to the user - the same shortcuts in the diff implementation are what we want in the front-end when looking for meaningful changes anyway.

I mean, this is just random speculation, but it would be interesting if this is indeed the case.
