I see no reason > to keep `!= 0` here. I wondered myself about this strange style. But it's there since the first OpenJDK commit (probably it was written by a C programmer where `bool` isn't a builtin type and he wanted to make sure that all non-zero values get mapped to 1). But as this style is used throughout the entire file, I prefer to keep it as is and not change a single occurrence only. ------------- PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/17509#discussion_r1467632151
