It would be more illustrative if you provide
a counterexample of the same construct which cannot be
caught by that or another regexp. It will be
interesting to see if that example is anything I would
put in my code, ever.

But it works. That regexp did identify several such
occurrences in my Elisp, which I have changed since.
It is yet to be found, if it failed to find any - if
that indeed happened. Either case, the code still
got better.

Perhaps the discrepancy gets smaller the better you
know your own style? Gnothi seauton - always
a good thing.
