Yes.  It looks better.

The "one thing per patch" rule is a fuzzy line. My scripts don't care
about white space very much so moving the .rates to the other line is
not a big deal.  Also the line break was really bad and the == true is
only mildly untidy at worst.  If it's a massive patch then removing the
== true makes things more difficult, yes, but if it's small then it's
probably fine to do it at once since it's on the same line and makes the
80 character rule work.

What I'm saying is that just use your best judgement what is easy to
review and we try to be reasonable as well.
