Apparently the thing that's missed in the code review was the unused field
_file. You removed it after submitting the code, fine, but that was a open
question when you submitted without LGTM. There was a design discussion
regarding FileToMutable class (I still don't like it) was going on, as you
once thought my suggestion would be better than FileToMutable, so there
really was an open question.

And one thing is that I mentioned about the unused field three times in the
code review. The last six emails between you and me were to repeat the same
thing about the dead field and suggesting a better design. You've lost your
time by rushing to commit it. Please take your time to read my comments and
your code. That would actually make the process faster.

 Instead, I would encourage you to take specific care with each code review,
