gollark: What if you want to use fallthrough in a *bit* of a mostly non-fallthrough switch/case?
gollark: (also, how would you specify fallthrough if you wanted that?)
gollark: Well, you could possibly, but it would likely be awful and not type safe.
gollark: The issue isn't the extra typing, it's that it's easy to forget and introduce weirdness (and also the extra line is ugly).
gollark: What a great* idea.
