+Really.
+Being the one who wrote it, yes it isn't.
+This is why we added a comment about it.

+You're confusing things.

+Before asking this again, just read further what the code do or the

+
+This has nothing to do with the bootloader.
+The functions have kept their names but the
+bootloader is not set up before the summary,
+way later...
+
+Again, this is why we added the "NOT" comment
