Here the variable 'islogical' doesn't seem to convey its actual
meaning because one can imagine that it indicates whether the slot is
logical which I don't think is the actual intent. One idea to simplify
this is to introduce a single function CanInvalidateSlot() or
something like that and move the logic from both the functions
SlotIsInvalid() and SlotIsNotConflicting() into the new function.
