Through no fault of yours, I have to admit that I found this refactor
quite hard to read. I ended up redoing the refactor and ended up with a
result very similar to yours. That was probably overkill since we have
pretty extensive tests in this area, but I'm quite happy with the change
since it's far more readable.

The one thing that changed for the better (vs keeping the lines in the
same order as before) is that this comment that used to be anchored on
"if (compact_format) {"...

is now more accurately anchored to the check that throws away the line.
Looks good.
