It's better, yes, unless stable folks think it's not a minimal change.

As a confirmation for your return tweak improving things, I recall that I 
had to be careful with the bool in this case for the reasons you mention 
(it requires more mental capacity and verification which way the return 
is).

(Also, expect the error handling reindent to cause a conflict with the RMW 
series.)
