Thank you for review, @theRealAph,

While switch-case might not be easily applicable because we have two variables, both of which have to be compared with the values, perhaps an interface like `bool is_model_any_of(std::initializer_list list)` can simplify the code. Would this approach be suitable?

Would you like this to be changed within this PR?
