for me the cognitive load of if(an expression) { if(another expression) { } } is MUCH lower than if(an expression && another expression) { } which always raise the questions of: - did the author think about operator precedence - did the author want to use && or & - did the author think about short-circuiting (as evidenced in this very thread, a lot of people do not)
