Er...that's not a "refactor". I know the term nowadays gets used liberally for any kind of rework, but refactoring involves making the tiniest of steps, often automatic or automatable, that improve the structure of the code without affecting functionality, all under the umbrella of a comprehensive test-suite that catches violations.
