A function that starts with `is` must return a boolean, otherwise it is a
mess:

(remember the concrete example in #16464).

I do not understand your point, in [comment:58] you proposed
`is_t_design(self,t,v,k,l)`. Now, you want to keep the
`return_parameters=False/True`. Fine, but it will be ugly if you make only
one function.
If you want to propose some code, do it! I am lost!
