being a manager (as a part time job ;)), i'd rather see a more explicit 
example for this ternary operator such as

temperature = ( weather == SNOW) ? LOW : HIGH

I'm not sure someone will not try to guess the behaviour of the ternary
operator from your example, but i might be wrong...

It is bad when one thing becomes two. One should not look for anything else in
the Way of the Samurai. It is the same for anything that is called a Way. If
one understands things in this manner, he should be able to hear about all ways
and be more and more in accord with his own.
