From the title, I was expecting something interesting like "SubText", or at least some kind of talk about dispatch :) Using &&, || etc gets you terse code, but the branching that you mentally work out is exactly the same.

.. unless you use the && and || so much that you end up chunking out specific patterns of usage without having to explicitly think about the branching.

.. which you can do with if as well.
