A single misplaced esclamation point means that there was an inverted if statement. It can happen. I think it's odd they didn't make that more clear.
This is one of the areas where AI code reviews can do better than humans. A small detail like that can be missed very easily by human eyes skimming code. It's funny how we have AI writing code now and humans reviewing it (often missing AIs mistakes). Maybe we should do it the other way around. Still have humans write code and have AI review it. With a contextually aware linter to catch mistakes, humans can write code faster without using AI generatively. And the benefit is that the act of writing the code means you understand it, which means you are in a valid position to maintain it. Doing it the other way means we now have a mountian of new code written for which no human is actually qualified to maintain it.
