Hi, that was my mistake - sorry!
Thanks for finding and fixing it :-)
I keep accidentally tapping the R key when jumping over words (E) for some reason.
"Purging the r's" is something I do quite regularly.
But a 't'? :-D
Regarding the detection of such mistakes:
To retain alphabetical ordering, there have to be collateral line changes.
This can probably be alleviated by using to commits, one for adding the pattern to the case expression and one for moving the existing patterns to restore ordering.
I would argue that the brain is actually very good at spotting differences if it's not occupied with "and this is the part where they've assigned the interface roles".
It isn't much but I don't think automated tests or "more discipline" (coding or reviewing) are appropriate or easier to implement reliably.
kind regards
