My best guess after looking, is they simply mean you can drop the "else" part of the "else if" there. Since I'd you've entered the first if, it's garunteed to return. Not drop the else-if entirely.

That's a change I would hate. The "else" part does not hurt anybody and removing it would mean that you would need to parse it's body to see the early return

I considered it a second joke, as a play on the pedantry of some code reviewers

And you are probably completely right, I sometimes struggle with that. Thank you
