The existing implementation is irrelevant. Your patch added a semantically 
completely useless flag. If you didn't want the list to grow, just you just 
could replace the existing item. That is obvious and that is what I have been 
saying from the beginning.

I don't like to waste my time repeating the same thing to someone who refuses 
to understand. That does not mean I agree with him/her.
