You may think that, but the fact the it didn't is a pretty strong indication that not everyone agrees. Better use clear names.

contains*() functions are useful because they return bools. For example 

bool foo = option1 & options2; 

doesn't compile, you need a clunky explicit conversion:

bool foo = !!(option1 & options2);
