> ones that flip-flop between two issues, I love doing "merge this if statement with the enclosing one" only to get "expressions should not be too complex" after I've merged them. I'm not sure that's flip-floping, the solution to the overly complex expression is to turn into a function. Unless the tool is just being overly aggressive on what it considers too complex, in that case you can try to tweak the configuration instead.
