Hi Ricardo,
I'll go a little further than Hans and Laurent:
I staunchly oppose what I call editorial changes:
'sed s/happy/glad/g'
in code that has been working for a long time for which many do not have time or hardware to perform regression tests against.
Please explain the return on investment for why this change should be applied? Help me to understand how that return outweighs the risk of introducing a bug? (No human being really code reviews sweeping editorial change like these thoroughly.)
