Yes, please go ahead.

Too bad for the testcase, as this means that we can potentially re-introduce
the bug later on. One thing I had to learn early in my career was to not let
best be the enemy of good. One test is better than none, so if you can't
cover all cases but have enough time to cover one, then one is always better
than none.
