I guess part of me is thinking of the "next" bridge that gets added
where someone just copies what you did and creates a needXXXToPCIBridge
boolean, adds another setting to true, another setting to false, and
then needs to decide which to prefer and thus has to muck with setting
the others based on the new one.
In the long run - it seems the setting of the bool is based on need,
then the second part is to decide what type of thing to add. That's why
I thought it would be easier to read with what I presented.
Again I'm fine with the way you had it, so it's your call.
