You're the one suggesting changes here, so it seems reasonable for you
to be one running benchmarks, preferably before posting suggestions.
Why would people include changes that appear to be unjustified?

Can you point out why you find the disputed ones correct? There is no
need to ask specific people if code objectivly won't do what it should,
which can be deduced by reading documentation to used functions.

If you specifically want to hear from Lua team, I'd expect changes to
come well-tested and benchmarked, since Lua team's time is valuable and
it is obviously smaller than active part of this mailing list.
