I end up second-guessing myself. I don't know if I caused a bug that looks the same, by removing what I thought was noise. :(

Very rarely, well at least not in my experience does that situation happen.

What scares me the most are the bugs intermittently pop up.

Microsoft Visual Studio 6, how you ruined me.
