WTH can't we use 'state_not' conditions?

realizing Ive FR’d this before, but wouldn’t this be a great moment(um) to add these to our toolbox?

condition:
  - condition: state
    entity_id: sensor.count_family_home
    state_not: 0
  - condition: state
    entity_id: device_tracker.paulus
    state_not: 'home'

would really allow for easier conditioning (And yes, I know and use the new condition: not already, but that still is rather convoluted)

thanks for considering!

no. it is not. so we cant use it.

that is what we have now yes, and, what I stated in the opening post, I use.
It is however not what I asked for, or suggested to be added.
