Logic negation in a ref counter which is also being decrease is not
really a feature of any language to me. I usually take twice as much
time to understand and think about logic implications when there is too
much in a single line. Maybe it is just me.
I said what I think before but I wouldn't nack a patch because of that.
It was more like a suggestion. If we decide to be picky about this
things we should (re)define code style [0] and then trying to stick
with it... My vote in general is for code readability and let the
compiler do this small optimizations.
