    Unfancy JavaScript

    this comes from Lisp and makes a lot of things easier. Obviously this was not implemented in ES6 because it would break compatibility and there is also some problems with implicit returns that made the feature a bit weird

    I wonder if a syntax like this for JS would work:

    const eldest = if (24>41) { escape "Liz" } else { escape "Ike" }

    with "escape" working like a mix of "break" and "return". But even then this is likely to cause incompatibilities
