================
Comment at: clang-tools-extra/clang-tidy/readability/SimplifyBooleanExprCheck.cpp:66
+  if (const auto *Negated = Result.Nodes.getNodeAs<UnaryOperator>(Id)) {
+    if (Negated->getOpcode() == UO_LNot &&
+        isa<CXXBoolLiteralExpr>(Negated->getSubExpr()))
----------------
I'd like to see this handled recursively instead so that we properly handle more esoteric logic (but it still shows up from time to time) like `!!foo`: https://codesearch.isocpp.org/cgi-bin/cgi_ppsearch?q=%21%21&search=Search

This is a case where I don't think the simplification should happen -- e.g., the code is usually subtly incorrect when converted to remove the `!!`. It's less clear to me whether the same is true for something like `!!!` being converted to `!`, but that's not a case I'm really worried about either.

Oof, but handling it here may be tricky...

----------------
Same here.
