Automotive and some other industries would wholeheartedly disagree with you, but
that's not the point here. I would argue that initializing by default is a very
good practice in larger codebases if only for error-proofing against assumptions
in future changes. But what you are fixing are just assignments which are
mostly pointless.

That's true. Or if it is unused (e.g. the last hunk).

Why not get rid of the `val = NULL` as well?

It's rewritten right here.

Maybe this is missing a check for an error instead. Impossible to find out from
the docs that I quickly tried to look up though.
Anyway,
