LILO jump/retf question

[Andrzej Kardas]

Hi,

I have been exploring  lilo bootloader last days, and i have a question:

There is piece of code in file bootsect.S like this:

;       jmpi    go,INITSEG         ; this line is commented out
         push    es
         push    #go
         retf

i wonder if are there any benefits of replacing line

jmpi    go,INITSEG  ; which, i think is more readable

by

push    es
push    #go
retf

besides to make people confused?
