No. But if you have any centrifuges they will probably exhibit inconsistent behavior.

Maybe it’s the centrifuges which will send the mail, making the world’s first uranium-enriching spam botnet.

It's hardly surprising given that parsing is generally considered to be a tricky problem. Plus, it's a 15 years old project that's widely used. 750 commits is nothing to sneer about. No wonder the original maintainer got burned out.

750 is not that many commits if you follow a commit style where each independent change gets its own commit.
