No, he did not. PPI works for a large and interesting class of
Perl code, but if you consider all possible valid Perl code files
that do something useful, it actually falls over most of the
time. Grind your code through Acme::Bleach and give it PPI,
f.ex.; you’ll get nothing interesting out the other side.
