This does not look correct. You are still sort of defining a macro,
except that you have dropped all of the \s. A macro has to be defined on
a single line, or a line continued with \, so this would cause major
syntax errors. I think that someone else worked on similar code and found
that some of the tests were also not needed in the context in which this
code is used.
