- * decaffeinate suggestions:
- * DS102: Remove unnecessary code created because of implicit returns
- * DS103: Rewrite code to no longer use __guard__, or convert again using --optional-chaining
- * DS104: Avoid inline assignments
- * DS204: Change includes calls to have a more natural evaluation order
- * DS205: Consider reworking code to avoid use of IIFEs
- * DS206: Consider reworking classes to avoid initClass
- * DS207: Consider shorter variations of null checks
- * Full docs: https://github.com/decaffeinate/decaffeinate/blob/main/docs/suggestions.md
