Yes this is a personal opinion, but the easier the code is to read for
the reviewer, the faster your code is going to get in.
I'm totally fine with updating the style document to say that pointer
checks should be (encoder != NULL), and to limit (!encoder) to booleans.
I'm also fine discouraging ?: use.
