I think yours was a good question in a way (it may make sense in some contexts, and with undefined translation): it may be part of the "paperclip maximizer" idea of the strategies a non-commonsensical agent may adopt to achieve its goals.

In automated chip layout, for example, already one can be proposed odd NOP circuitry that reveals to be just relevant to timings - all tricks are possible.

"Sighs" could presumably be the reversal manouvers in decision trees walking.
