That is helpful for the case like in the test `'e =!= ('f === ('g === Not('h)))` It will be optimized as ``` 'e =!= ('f === ('g === Not('h))) => 'e === ('f =!= ('g === Not('h))) => 'e === ('f === ('g =!= Not('h))) => 'e === ('f === ('g === Not(Not('h)))) => 'e === ('f === ('g === 'h)) ``` Only the last `Not(Not('h))` will need to re-visit `BooleanSimplification` one more time. Otherwise it will stay the fist `Not` propagation is done within `NotPropagation` -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
