It certainly is but he probably did it just to check whether
anything changes when another code path is run (the mapping)
while the previously-working result (= successful login)
should not change (mary is still mary). despite the
additional code path.

It seems to be a way of bisecting in order to verify/falsify
assumptions in his mental model.
