Quite. rec.arts.sf.written frequently has discussions,
sometimes heated, on the boundary between science fiction and fantasy
or, more generally, <genre1> and <genre2>.

I also try to keep my statements on one line unless it is
something like a long output statement or a procedure call where the
complexity is not there.
Several years ago, there was a post to, I think,
comp.lang.c.moderated where the OP asked how to optimise two
statements. I looked at them and did not see a way. Some time later,
someone posted a different version of the code.
The first version had long variable names, and each of the two
statements took two lines. The new version had shorter variable
names, and each statement fit on one line. The second version was
*much* more readable.

I will take your word for it. I can see how it would easily work
out as you stated.
