// purposes of counting, ignore the phi itself. Both of
// these phis are redundant:
// v = phi(x,x,x)
// v = phi(x,v,x,v)
// We repeat this process to also catch situations like:
// v = phi(x, phi(x, x), phi(x, v))
// TODO: Can we also simplify cases like:
// v = phi(v, w, x)
// w = phi(v, w, x)
// and would that be useful?
