Humans too do that for matching decompilation. Or at least I imagine so, given that I personally refuse to do that.

People have different goals and will use different techniques to achieve them. The video game reverse-engineering/decompilation community isn't a hive-mind, I went ahead and created ghidra-delinker-extension because I had my own ideas on how to do that.
