This sort of thing is done deliberately as a style choice...  I probably
wouldn't have written it that way myself, but there really isn't a
downside to leaving it as-is.

The unused "int ret = 0;" just introduces a static checker warning about
unused assignments and disables the static checker warning for
uninitialized variables so we want to remove that.
