It's clearer in intention, if nothing else. If I understand correctly,
Juanma considers checking for the existence of a feature to be a cleaner
way of writing feature specific code than checking for some function
that may be an indication that such a feature might exist. The two
approaches are equal in lines of code, but checking for a function so
that ou may execute code that has nothing to do with that function is
uglier (though equivalently effective).
