> I'd like to propose that we reject that NoIfThenElse proposal (#44).   In short, it suggests that we remove the syntactic sugar for `if-then-else` and leave to programmers to define their own version as a function.
> 
> I think that this has virtually no benefits and many draw-backs, including breaking existing code, and making programs more difficult to read.
> 
> Would there be any objections if I was to mark this as rejected, and close the request?
