Yeah, but the if/else is one of the most useful examples of it, and is
covered by ?:, so the whole thing becomes less compelling then.
The other places where I've used it in languages that support it are
little blocks crammed into a line and sometimes exception grabbing...
but still, the value isn't that great.
If we had a clean sheet wouldn't it be better to have if return a value
and ditch ternary?
Possibly, but then you'd need to have while return a value. -- Andrei
