@chromatic I totally didn't get it why people attacked Andrew there. He was speaking figuratively, not calling the OP an idiot whatsoever.

Me neither, unless it was "I'll make fun of you if you have an error warnings could have caught." I didn't understand the post much anyhow.

Well, more precisely, a flag saying the old hashing method shouldn’t be used. No reason to keep the old hash itself.
-
Oh, that makes sense! And yeah, that would require complexity/hacks, but logical solution
