+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
