Looks fine to me, although I only read your commit logs, I didn't
verify that what you stated was actually true (ie the whole "only used
for xyz" parts).

But I'll take your word for it. Particularly the double-underscore
versions are getting rare (and presumably some of the other branches
you have make it rarer still).
