Well... :) Things should still be somewhat obvious. I'd much rather have:

	%if %{?el2} or %{?el3}
or
	%if not %{?el2} and not %{?el3}

than
	%if %{?el2:1}%{?el3:1}0
or
	???

Even though you have much flexibility as you just demonstrated, 
simplicity is important. Especially if you want to build from a single 
SPEC file you want to bring down the amount of 'ugly glue'.
