To make this more explicit, I should note that this seems to be how trollspam is still being sent into #sugar.          
                                                                                                                        
I suspect it doesn't get mentioned by, eg, Freenode staff alongside the recommendation to set +r because they may be    
accustomed to having +n already set.
