> Ratio of ternary operators more than 1 level deep to total LoC. Sure. I should have said, "no current general objective metric". For example, if we detect any symbols longer than 6 billion characters, then we know the code is likely to be hard to grok. Or if the only character used in symbols is the underscore. And maybe the path forward for determining objectively comprehensible code is to collect every pathological case and then good code is code without the bad stuff. But I personally hope for a general solution that we can setup which will emergently determine that too many nested ternary operators is bad from first principles. I'm more than ready to be disappointed when this turns out not to be possible, but everyone is allowed a dream.
