Definitely agreed that it's labor-intensive. :-)

I hadn't spot checked those, but did see at least one similar case with what I 
checked. However, I consider those false positives because none of these are 
cases where the code gives wrong results. It is possible they are performance 
concerns (though I'd be curious whether these patterns optimize well or not), 
so if the check was specific to finding that scenario, that would be pretty 
useful (though it likely requires codeflow analysis).
