Short but honestly good advise to rather pull boolean checks apart and re-group them as they make sense in the context of the given situation you’re checking for.

I started doing this when building an alert-check system for the company I’m working for right now, and it really helps organize what is a pre-condition, what a syntactical requirement, etc etc.

    Ah I hate that, too. It speaks of bad abstraction, over eager abstraction or unnecessary coupling that is the hidden behind this. Difficult to fix though without essentially starting over.
