I would say "unfortunate" rather than "poor".

What is the fix? There is no user visible behavior changes that results from
this cleanup, right?

Oh, nice, net reduction in code I was not expecting.

I was hoping at the end of this to get rid of the word "common" to avoid any
more "common event record confusion".
