Hi Greg, Well point is that the condition is the only thing happening and does not really apply to the indented code section, but basically to the list used in the indented code section.
When I read this code back its like, 'oh we use this list' and by the if some_condition the next thing I think is 'hm, not all of the list' and even worse should I worry if more restrictions can be found when I read further...
