Okay, this is really neat design. I went to check whether if..else works in an expression context and it does:

    fn five() -> i32 {
        let a = if (true) { 3 } else { 6 };
        return a + 2;
    }
Pure fun!

Ya if you want fun match/case also works like that.

And though for abs while don’t (they always return ()) `loop` itself does, you can `break` with a value and that’s what comes out the loop.
