I mean I get it that it's a Long function, line wise, but it reads like every single line has just the minimum amount of information it needs to have to be legible and to make sense for it to exist.

I would say that this is more readable than those leet programmer regex hacks that work magic in 3 lines of code but require a fucking PhD to decipher.
