Mostly looks good. There's a bunch of ifs that are now trivial (condition and body each fit on one line, no else) and we'd usually drop braces there, but it's probably not worth the hassle.

I have to say that this rule slightly improves "early exit after error condition" type code, but makes it less clear that "there are 3 cases" type code is exhaustive.
So personally I'm not sure the check is a win if we want to follow it everywhere, I'd consider fixing the cases where it improves things and then turning it off. @kadircet am I being too picky here?

This seems inconsistent: we're elseing after continue.

If we've using this style, i'd invert the if here so the "continue" case just falls off the end of the loop body. (But keep the comment)

Looks like there are unrelated formatting changes in a couple of files

FWIW I find this one *much* less clear :-(
I'd personally prefer to ignore the rule in this case, but curious what others think

Discussed offline, I believe the plan is to NOLINT the locations where we're handling several cases exhaustively.

I think this is a nolint

Sorry for the continued mess with automatic code formatting. Somehow VSCode forgot my settings :(
