The point I was making was more about the prospect of adding condition handling as a language user to an existing language. Basically that most language implementations make it impossible to add something like this using the tools provided by the language. I suppose at points go it was a bit of a silly one.

The difficulty in adding it to the language when modifying the language implementation is an open option is much lower.

OK, gotcha. I misunderstood. With that I agree.
