Not only obscure, but depending on the rule being processed could be plain
wrong. It works for the values shown so far, but what if another test is
added to the use case in the future that doesn't fit the clever solution?
Without knowing the intent of the code, it could be a headache to maintain.
Just my 2 cents.
