Just to be clear, my example code's delete thing was just using that as
"there's some random tidy-up we need to do before any early return"; so
the three conditions are all "we need to return early from this method"
and the need to delete thing (which was nowhere referenced in any of the
conditionals) is incidental to the test. In such a case I very much
doubt there's a nice name for the method.
