Removing redundant ternary conditionals

[jjdelvalle]

I figured this would have to do more with coding standards and it was pointed out the discussion should continue here.

Discussion so far can be read here:
joomla/joomla-cms#4936

Do we agree on removing the redundant operators?

I agree with the final post on that PR. Thoughts?

@mbabker Suggest closing in favor of discussion in #119
