  I agree that things will work fine even without the lines you removed. However I would keep those two lines for two reasons

  • performance will be better since it will exit early.

  • it is self documenting. It is easier to read and see what is happening.

  I disagree on the second point. The validates_each method is never called if the raw_value is nil and option :allow_nil is true.

  The allow_nil and allow_blank checks are done in the validate method . Leaving this line is suggests otherwise to the casual reader.

  Performance will not be better with the lines left in. It's a completely unnecessary check.

  If you look into the validate method you will see that a validator with the :allow_nil => true and nil raw value will never reach this code.
