This code-pattern appears many times in pgstatfuncs.c:

Datum
pg_stat_get_blocks_fetched(PG_FUNCTION_ARGS)
{
        Oid                     relid = PG_GETARG_OID(0);
        int64           result;
        PgStat_StatTabEntry *tabentry;

        if ((tabentry = pgstat_fetch_stat_tabentry(relid)) == NULL)
                result = 0;
        else
                result = (int64) (tabentry->blocks_fetched);

        PG_RETURN_INT64(result);
}


Why do we assign this to "result" and then return, why not just:
        if ((tabentry = pgstat_fetch_stat_tabentry(relid)) == NULL)
                PG_RETURN_INT64(0);
        else
                PG_RETURN_INT64(tabentry->blocks_fetched);
