So we can debug it before we return. an optimization compiler should make them the same thing anyway, but under -Og it is helpful to be able to be able to see the return before we return it.
This seems like the type of change I might make temporarily rather than something to commit.
Assuming finish didn't do what I wanted.

Well, personally i dont see why we wouldn't make it permanent. If it got used to debug this once then why not again in the future? My experience is the past tends to repeat itself.... What would the harm be?

Indeed. And trivial to confirm with godbolt if you wish.
