<p>I like [CPAN://Perl::Critic], but once in a while I run across a policy that's completely wrong. My personal example today is the one to prohibit conditionals in declarations. That's <em>right</em> for lexicals, because of the unwarned and almost always entirely unwanted pseudo-static behavior exhibited through Perl 5.8... but the policy bafflingly warns about the construct for [local] variables, which do not exhibit this problem at all.</p>
<p>If I could remember the name of the policy, I'd file a bug against it.</p>
