I know you could write it, too; I was just pointing out that my first
instinct in Python was to mimic the way Fox worked. Since then I've
come to appreciate that it isn't built-in. What if instead of choosing
between two states, you wanted to choose between 3? Or 4? Or 16?
Having a single idiom for accomplishing that need is cleaner IMO, and
I no longer miss iif().
