Ingenious solution. Every time I read yours, I feel you're like a magician....! Nice to use this "True == 1"

I'm just picky about the particular giants whose shoulders I like to stand on. :-] For example, about that True==1, see <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iverson_bracket">Ken Iverson</a>.

Nice saying. Ever consider to collect these recipes and publish one day?

Many people ask me that. I think many of them are way too specific to the concrete context, not very useful in general. Iverson bracket is a general idea, yes, but it's also well known. And I never really understood the appeal of publishing... surely noone would pay for these. :-D If you just mean "put them all in one place so they can be easily searched", I think it's too much work for too small gain... unless you volunteer, of course? ;-)
