oops, I replaced yesno() here but forgot to do so in the title

just like it would already do, no? I can try and see what happens, but
my feeling is that we won't have any change.

I saw that question in the previous version. I think those are very
subjective is they all go a little bit over 80 chars. Some maintainers
may prefer one way or the other.

Here we are reducing just 3 chars so I assumed that is the preferred
style here.  Also keeping it as is helps with the mass conversion since
it's easily repeatable if another iteration is needed.
