Again, correct. But “don't do this if you don't really need to do this” is rather pointless to say, hence is being downvoted, because people already being that sensible don't need to hear it, and those who are not are unlikely to listen. The comment is just noise, as unnecessary as the unnecessary animation and other gumf that it is railing against.
