My eyes! *Starts clawing them out*
All in what you are used to reading. I grew up with ranges sepcified as
something like
0 <= x <= 40
in the spec, and therefore still write it like
if (0 <= x && x <= 40)
because that makes it obvious (to me) that it's a range check.
A case of the language not having a range check operator and various
people finding one thing or another readable.
