One of the bugs which I detected in Crap-Poo-Poo code which I referred
to in the paper referred to below involved two functions like these,
but they accidentally did not return values compatible with each
other. I explained this to Crap-Poo-Poo advocates involved, but they
lacked sufficient intelligence to comprehend a reason as to code
cloning producing a bug. I also advised that Ada does not do
this. They persisted with Crap Poo Poo.
