I see. I hadn't seen any active-high resets in your lists yet. If you
need them, you obviously can't simplify this much.

In general it is a good idea not to add complexity for theoretical
cases, on the other hand [1] isn't really much less complex. Can I ask
you to invert the logic, though, and use assert_val instead?
