flake8-simplify has a bunch of rules like that for Python, most of which may be automatically fixed if you're using something like ruff, so you never have to spend time actually fixing it.
Well, you shouldn't have to spend any time actually fixing code found by that rule either. If the time you spent was larger than 0, you are better looking for the cause than making something that fixes it automatically.
