Great idea to remove things, but keep your hands off extended pattern
guards! I've got at least 3 instances of that in the module that is
currently open on my screen. I've got loads of it everywhere, its
great.

If you are looking for things to remove, I'd look in the direction of
n+k patterns :-)

Thanks
