You should probably configure your editor to strip that off automatically.

Why the change from (win+w)*2? Shouldn't you remove the entire loop around
w because now nothing depends on it?

There is a subtle difference at ~80k bitrate and the spectrals look a bit
better, specifically the low energy bands.
There is a lack of clipping however. There used to be some rare spikes
across the entire spectral range which are gone now.
