Great! It could even be qualified:
val = BETTER foo THAN bar UNLESS not required(foo)
and nested:
val = BETTER foo THAN (
BETTER bar THAN baz
UNLESS lunar_phase=="Full Moon")
and used wherever any other expression is allowed:
val = BETTER foo THAN (
BETTER bar THAN baz
UNLESS insanity_level>threshold)
UNLESS self.parent is self \
if verbose else 42
Sane precedence rules would require using ( ) around the expression before
the if clause, I presume.
Eagerly awaiting the implementation,
