You've never seen bugs prevented by initializing uninitialized
variables? Code can change overtime and I don't think coverity is
checked as often as it could be, meaning the var could end up being used
while uninitialized in the future.

Anyway I won't die on this hill, merge this if you prefer.

Cheers,
