There is no logical difference. "--" (double-negation) is merely a way
to
convert boolean results (TRUE, FALSE) into a number, which SUMPRODUCT
requires. But any arithmetic operation will do the same. Moreover,
SUMPRODUCT(x,y,z) is logically the same as SUMPRODUCT(x*y*z).

However, there is an operational difference that may or may not
matter,
depending on the situation. If any of B54:B62 is text,
SUMPRODUCT(...*B54:B61) will fail with a #VALUE error, whereas
SUMPRODUCT(...,B54:B61) will not. The reason is that SUMPRODUCT is
designed
to tolerate text, whereas arithmetic expressions do not.
