It just seemed logical so that you a developer doesn't have to

The difference is that on a non-empty index, it would open the roughly 6
index files and read their first lines twice instead of once. So, it
probably doesn't make much of a difference, but it is a slight
performance penalty just like the thing you pointed out about having the
boolean logic in the wrong order.
If that's the case, then feel free to handle it explicitly. I'll take
whatever performance I can get :)
