A tool like this that tells me how surprising my code is, and takes into account comments around it, might change my mind on this front. If it always works as well as in the OP it would be super useful to be able to know how surprising the code I'm writing is (and I can then judge whether that's OK with me if it's surprising code), but this would also make it hard for the code and the comments to diverge greatly.

I mean, I still won't want "add 1 to x" comments of course.
