But this is the output on the console. For those if clauses you need a
boolean (true or false resp. 0 or 1) and this is not given by
cryptsetup isLuks. This value is only given as an exit code. So this
part of the script is absolutely correct and the only way to handle
this.

Not necessary, it's not a bug. You probably can file a feature request
to cryptsetup upstream, if you don't like the exit code method.
