Using jumps is not removing the optimization entirely, is just a weaker and 
more incomplete way of doing the same. The optimization introduced the bug in 
the first place. If this was done today it would have been reverted. The only 
thing legitimating the "error" is time. But this is basically elevating a bug 
to a feature, making this even more relevant than ever:
