They were fired for using ?: which was explicitly banned by the coding practices. I should probably have made that clearer.

The point I was trying to make (unsuccessfully by the look of it) is that large organizations which have far more experience than I do of writing software often have very strong opinions that what you're advocating is a bad idea. I'm not sure how they formed those opinions, but I'd bet previous experience played a big part in it.

Well you didn't say they were fierd for not following coding practices, you
said they weer fired for using the ?: operator.

If "not using it" was in the coding practices I had to adhere to, then
sure; I'd not use it.  However if I was in the position to do something
about the coding practices, I'd be seeing to it they were at least
reviewed, because I don't think that part of them is particularly
well-thought-out.
