Why? How do you get any useful work done if you can't change anything? Why would you change a loop to recursion? Why is something divided by zero returning zero? That isn't right. At least a floating point version could return NaN.
I swear some of these Computer Scientists never do any useful work either.

This is why software projects always fails. It becomes so abstract that it loses reality and fails in the real world.
