Kunark would be the oddity. I hadn't considered it, since Kunark didn't have any AA availability.

Since the transformation reflects a greater than positional value, and there is a 'false' return methodology, you really don't want that condition
to be true for an exclusionary check.
Perhaps I'm misunderstanding your intended message, but since it returns false on a not true, the result from the bitwise & should be true if the AA is to be visible to the player. Using SoL as an example, since I can break the comparison down to just a nibble, we currently have the bitwise & of the expansion bitmask (0100) and the shifted rank->expansion value (1000):
Code:
0100
1000
----
0000
Throwing a not on that then evaluates true and in turn returns false, even though we obviously want SoL AA to be used if SoL is the enabled expansion

But, looking at what is defined and what is being checked, I think that particular code snippet is correct. That's not to say that there may not be
issues elsewhere (these guys are pretty sharp and usually catch logic errors pretty quick.)
Which snippet do you believe is correct? The one I posted or the one in source. Perhaps the above bit in this reply is wholly unnecessary.
