I believe so.

Thanks for asking! 

My primary point was that we should avoid anything that uncontrollably 
change current picture,  to avoid overlapping several factors. You're already in,
so as soon as you don't change anything at all, you're neither increasing
nor decreasing the number of reported errors, and so don't make it
harder to track progress, so there's no need to stop running at this point.
