I wonder if this one could be removed, earlier above we did the same config
and neither parameters changed? But it was true before this patch as well,
and maybe it's further refactored away later in the series, just noting.

If we merged successfully, I think this is not necessary? But doesn't hurt?

The two checks above used to be in the opposite order. Can we keep that just
to be sure we don't change user observable behavior unnecessarily?
