[1] says
"Also, use braces when a loop contains more than a single simple statement:"

And I see that here we have and if() instead of a loop, but I believe
that the intent of "the rule" (not sure how hard) was to pet the brace
in such cases.
To be clear, I don't want to stop an otherwise good PR just for this!
