That's partially because we could use more tests to catch them (And if you're interested in stuff like this then writing selftests is always great. We can always use more of them.) but also simply because the code is complex. Having a lot of non-functional commits that don't really improve the legibility of the code significantly can become an issue for maintainers. Personally, I tend to be less worried about this but this is a collaborative endeavour. :)
