This code is repeated in 3 places - it probably doesn't make sense to have 3
duplicate comments as well. I think it would fit well with your function
suggestion below.

This is a great idea. However, I would consider this further scope creep for
this patch set - I think what is here is already a great improvement. I am
currently focused on wrapping up a project; unfortunately, this change would be
low on the priority list for me and I may not be able to get to it.
