Why? To me, this just makes the code much more complicated. Is this 
required for patch 13/13 in some way? Is it impossible to implement patch 
13/13 without this?

A commit message should not only explain _what_ you do, but more 
importantly, why (in case that is not obvious, which it is not here).
