Ternary operator (? :), modeled with JSIfThenElse. can't have blocks
as parameters.

It is, you can have
(a > 3) ? 'Bigger' : 'Smaller';

but not:
(a > 3) ? {return 'Bigger' } : {return 'Smaller'}

Indeed. That's what I wanted. To be as non-invasive as possible.
The decoration gets a little awkward, but it does the job.
