How does adding conditionality make the language easier to understand?
It seems you are still asking for a fork in the language. I very much
resist to the notion that forking the language is desirable (for
whatever reasons).

Thus making it simpler????? The more complex behavior still remains,
to fully understand the language, you have to understand that behavior,
*plus* you need to understand that it may sometimes not be present.
