Yes, this is why I at least kept the individual backports to separate commits, so a 1-to-1 comparison can still be performed while this change doesn't break any tests. I could split it into about half a dozen separate PRs but I'm not sure there's much advantage (plus we already have a dependency chain of four to get to #390) and the first change would result in several test failures being introduced.
