Who said anything about a "corner case"? I did. Less than 10% of input causes a problem so its a corner case. So should we not a least consider it under that exception.

| Jun 10, 2019 at 17:07 | comment | added | Loki Astari | Because he asked for help in improving it is off topic! I would argue that no code ever written works perfectly as intended. All code can be improved, but more importantly It can have benefit to other users. As long as a review of the code could provide benefit to others that ultra strict interpretation of "It works as intended" is counter productive. | |
