Should also remove

now?

This is used in other different places in InlineCost not related to my case. I think I shouldn't remove it unless I investigate its uses and that should be in a different patch.

Ah yes, sorry.

Needs REQUIRES: asserts if you're matching debug output. Though I'm not super clear on what exactly this particular test is intended to check.

Here I just want to show the difference between this approach and the old approach in the other patch.
This tests shows that the recursive function will not get simplified unless the caller is the function itself, not another caller as the old patch was doing.
