+        # The cause for the bug is as follows: When we have, say, a module called "bar.0.query" that we want to target
+        # and another module called "foo_bar.0.query" that we don't want to target, there was potential for an error.
+        # This is not caused by _find_minimal_target_modules directly, but rather the bug was inside of
+        # BaseTuner.inject_adapter and how the names_no_target were chosen. Those used to be chosen based on suffix. In
+        # our example, however, "bar.0.query" is a suffix of "foo_bar.0.query", therefore "foo_bar.0.query" was *not*
+        # added to names_no_target when it should have. As a consequence, during the optimization, it looks like "query"
