A smart match between two scalars. Clear.

if $a in $b             #it is clear what this means

One scalar is in another? WTF?

if a in b               #this is even better IMO


Dunno what a and b are - so who knows what it does?

Which is not, of course, to say that you're wrong - but that readability is - to some extent - in the eye of the beholder.
