Yes, but you might make a mistake, and sometimes it makes more
intuitive sense to read it in a non-minimized form. This type
of change is also much harder to review. Consider why the
change got checked into dmd, without it being minimized at the
time or in a later pull.
C# supports `if !(`.
and it wouldn't be hard for D to support it too:
https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/8440
It just requires someone to step up and write the DIP.
Since ! is used to pass template params... I'd rather use it for
parameterized keywords in the same way, for instance:
if!likely(...)
if!unlikely(...)
It would standardize the existing practice of "__builtin_expect".
Also it you really wanted, you could add something like:
if!not(...)
