Leading to the interesting question: is the compiler smart enough to 
optimize it away? A string literal has no side effects so if its return 
value is unused the compiler *can* do so, but *does* it?

Obviously, though, if you're going to put a comment where tooling won't 
pick it up as a docstring you should just use ; and thereby *ensure* it 
will compile away to nothing.
