Hmm. It doesn't make me think the variable will be used again, because
it clearly says 'return', and they are both local variables.
Anyway, applied, to humor you. But this is the last time. Please don't
bother me with matters of style -- as long as things work correctly and
there is no compiler that complains, then all is fine. Consider sending
patches that fix actual bugs instead.
