Ok, I'd agree any code that comes from an incomplete/non-functional PR that was merged is probably good to delete if not used in your fix. Still would prefer to minimize renames.

seems like a decent middle ground. I'll compare with the original and roll back to being less aggressive, and will put back the helper functions.

looks like the way the fuzzer builds needs updating

@jtdavis777 some docs for this feature would be nice

@fliiiix totally fair -- see #8821
