+1.  Not infrequently I judge that my code is easier both to read and to maintain with more than 1 (short) statement on a line, often when it allows similar items to be aligned vertically.  A spur-of-the moment, totally invented example:
    if MON <= day <= FRI:    Rate = Normal
    if day==SAT:                     Rate = DoubleTime
    if day==SUN:                    Rate = TripleTime
I also feel no inhibitions about using Jacco's original example:
    if cond: do_something
