Summary0003118: specie operator== returns difference of two species and not boolean
DescriptionThe operator== in /src/thermophysicaModels/specie/specie/specie.H returns a specie and not a boolean.

For comparison operators a boolean is expected. The behavior of the function is not clear and is confusing.

Correct, C++ does not provide enough operators and no means to define new ones so '==' is used for other purposes when boolean comparison is not needed.
