I don't care to use the single line if as we already have that (just in
reverse order).  I want a double line if, which has never made me cringe,
although of course this is subjective.

Awesome, I've learned something new.  I never though about a newline after
an &&.  I'll give this a try and see how it feels.  Although from the looks
of it, a two-line if would read better.
