Sorry for the slow response.  Good question.  In 25k lines of code
(not mine but mostly written by people "like me"), I found only 4, all
"loud".  This is pretty convincing.  However, I do want to search
again for possible bugs introduced by calls to .keys(), which is used
much more often in this code.
