Re^4: Capturing regex from map

> It is concise and to my eyes clear.

well, as you can see from some answers it's not clear for everybody.

you are using the fact that 'm//' in list context returns a list of the grouped matches (if any).

(w/o grouping it returns 1 for true matches)

If you are using this idiom very often you might want to document it for other maintainers...

you are using I'm not using anything, but if I were called upon to maintain the OPs code; I would not have a problem with it. Try addressing your pedantry to the OP. He might be interested.
