@arsenm , is this change considering that getCopyCost may return -1 to indicate "extremely high cost".
IIUC that actually would result in subtracting 10 instead of adding a huge penalty here.
(Context is that I'm debugging some downstream problems, as we've been seeing a number of "ran out of registers" failures after merging this PR. Haven't gotten that far in the debugging yet. But the question above popped up.)
