I spent nonzero time (not a whole lot, but not just a few minutes)
making the grand-replace.py script more maintainable and catering
for implications of other changes to Python scripts (`pytt`)
on it. It's one of all the small sources of maintenance work
that add up. Now, it's not a big source of trouble either.
I'd be happy to see it gone, but this isn't a hill I am
willing to die on.
