For a simple reason. The 'expect_nothing_more' finds some changes, prints 
self.unexpected_difference and calls self.fail_test. The latter prints all 
the differences in the last run. I believe you've added this functionality 
some time ago. Maybe, extra explanation line before the second output
would have helped.
