Nice theory, but in practice when they aren't used, the values that are
returned are usually bogus and makes things even more complicated when
you want to actually make use of them - I encoutered that kind of thing
in other places already.
In other words: Either give them a reason to exist or remove them.
Anything else is endorsing broken cruft, which I think we have enough
of.
