done by this pass?
I don't recall if we had explicitly called out shorten_compare and/or
shorten_binary_op in any of our discussions, but I can confirm that this
is one step in trying to do something sensible in this space.
I'm happy to put shorten_compare on the hit-list. I haven't had to fix
anything in shorten_compare in about 15 years and I'd largely forgotten
about it.
