It's not noise, verifying that we actually picked up known fixes is
good, I'd much rather a few "do you really have this fix" emails get
sent than not sent at all and we miss things.

And I just checked, yes, if Sasha hadn't picked this up with his
scripts, my scripts would have caught it as well, so it was a good test
that our independant processes are working.
