+The main problem with the nested if-statements is that they are ordered,
+meaning that one can not simply order them and end up with the same
+behaviour. This depends on the fact of if two predicates are satisfiable
+or not, which affects on if they can be switched or not.
+
+This can be solved with a similar solution to the full SAT solution
+([\#2e1c5]), whereby the if-statements are collapsed into a list of
+conditionals, out of which only one can be active at a time. This means
+that their order does not matter, and that they can then be sorted.
