This is a common grammar error (use to vs used to), because the d is not
usually pronounced by most people. However, if it was a negative
statement + 'do', it would be correct (IE "You did not use to do that"
is correct, not "did not used to"). Fun with past tense verbs and
infinitives.
9 times out of 10 you are better rephrasing the sentence.
I.E. "Previously, operands were updated lazily via calls
@code{get_stmt_operands}." or something.
