Totally right! This is where writing teaching code rather than maximally elegant code sometimes produces different results.

Sorry I should have explained why I posted that.

If you have a piece of code of the form:

if (condition):
    return True
else:
    return False

Be aware that condition is a Boolean already, by virtue of fitting in the if statement. It's not elegance I wanted to demonstrate, I just wanted to raise type awareness.

I'll be keen to write a little explanation if I'm ever tempted to reply with a line of code like this :)
