This is a small rewrite to address some minor style nits. Don't compare against the empty list to check for the empty condition, and move the normalization forward to unify the check on the now-normalized structure.
With the check unified, the local nested function isn't needed anymore and can be brought down into the normal flow of the function. With the nesting level changed, shuffle the error strings around a bit to get them to fit in 79 columns. Note: though ifcond is typed as Sequence[str] elsewhere, we *know* that the parser will produce real, bona-fide lists. It's okay to check isinstance(ifcond, list) here.
