Default Head Gone to Mush with an IF formula

Could I ask for help, as my brains turned to mush and I'm cross eyed
looking at this simple IF formula. What I wish to express is:

IF Z33=0, then
IF Sum(N71:P71)=0, then
IF Y33=FALSE

Then return value in A71, otherwise
<blank

My umteenth attempt is below, but it returns "FALSE"

=IF(Z33=0,IF(SUM(N71:P71)=0,IF(Y33=FALSE,A71,"")," "))

Max a better representation might be:

Z22=0
Sum(N60:P60)=0
Y22=TRUE

So I expect my answer to return "", it displays as FALSE

One guess, try:
=IF(Z33=0,IF(SUM(N71:P71)=0,IF(Y33="FALSE",A71,"") ,""))
The above presumes that you're checking Y33 for the text: FALSE

But if Y33=TRUE, it doesn't return a <blank, which I'm looking for

You haven't defined the answer for when Z33 is not zero, so in that case it
would return FALSE.
You could try either
=IF(Z33=0,IF(SUM(N71:P71)=0,IF(Y33=FALSE,A71,"")," "),"") or
=IF(AND(Z33=0,SUM(N71:P71)=0,Y33=FALSE),A71,"")

Your formula will return FALSE if Z33 is not 0. Try

=IF(Z33=0,IF(SUM(N71:P71)=0,IF(Y33=FALSE,A71,"")," "),"")
