I could have sworn this had been removed by now. I remember deleting
it at one point during one of my debugging sessions and being
surprised it was still there at that point.

I agree that this should be removed. The question is: will this cause
any regression? I suggest running it through Peter's test repo, and I
would also suggest adding a test to it for the issue you have found,
too.

Although I worry about it causing a regression elsewhere, there is
nothing in the patch that is wrong, so:
