"overly verbose" might be giving too much credit... it's bad code

  No. 'Verbose' is correct. It's not bad code. It's a simple control flow.

    Using a branch when you can just do an assignment is objectively bad code.

      Objectively eh? And bad code by what criteria? In this case, it's a little more verbose than it needs to be, but hurts nothing.

        But violates DRY = bad code. Not incorrect because it does what it's suppose to, just in a bad way.
