That's a mighty sweeping generalization you're making there.
I don't think you can categorically say the condition is always more
important.  Many times in my code I have lines like this:

	$activity_log->dump()  if $debug;

or:

	$activity_log->dump()  if -t STDIN;

The condition is NOT more important in cases like this.
