replace if good; return happy; else; return sad with if bad; return sad; return happy. Its easier to read and saves you some indents

I will forever hate whatever bazinga wrote this into whatever style guide that has this opinion. The first is way easier imo, it's explicit that if this happens, then return this, if anything else, return that. The latter you have to fill in a tiny gap when reading to put in the inferred else clause that's not written down to figure it out

Regardless, if I wanted to be an asshole for work politics in this situation I'd comment "aKScHuaLLy return happy if good else sad is better"
