-Normal ​output ​would be unaffected. ​ The closes there were in case +grep's normal ​output ​(on stdout) will be unaffected. ​We're closing fd 3 in case a program actually cares about this fd (although most programs don't). We send stderr to sed's stdin, and then put sed's stdout "back" to stderr.
-something really cared about all its FDs We send stderr to sed, +
-and then put it back out 2.+
