I agree with the sentiment. However, it is a tad surprising when you consider the productivity hit, even just internally speaking, that ~5min of cpu time in strlen() on every start of the app incurs. How much time did perfectly qualified engineers, who could have attached a profiler at any moment, spend sitting at a loading screen spending most of its time in unnecessary strlen() calls? I understand we see this through 20/20 hindsight, serendipity can work against you, etc., but that's a crazy irony.
