Not disagreeing that this should be here, I'd prefer to keep unrelated changes out of a PR. Could you open a seperate PR that adds this? (No need for an issue or blurb entry on it, just the one line change should be fine; tag me and I'll add skip issue and skip news.)

I appreciate the input but it's not really worth my time to split this single line out into a separate PR. Any real reason it can't ride along with this one?

We don't really like to accept changes that are unrelated to the actual fix. You can leave it in, but expect pushback from other reviewers.
