Pay attention, though. There may be all kinds of guidelines about how to
write sage code "appropriately", but in classes where performance is very
important there may be shortcuts that violate the guidelines. That may very
well be intentional. It may also be that it's legacy code and that
rewriting it according to the latest trends does not particularly affect
performance negatively.
