Implicitly return value maybe?

To be able to write something like:

fn fact(n)
    if n <= 1
        1
        n * fact(n - 1)

i've been there, and I'm not sure I like it.

This is a functionality present in CoffeeScript, and it can get a bit confusing. For instance, this quite simple to understand:

my_var = if it is 0
   'ok'
else
   'stars'

But for new-comers, this might not be the case (specially for large code blocks):

say_it = (right, now) ->
   as = 'if it'
   (were, real) ->
      if such?.fail is right
         return as + real

      now

I strongly suggest NOT to do it, and never to think about it again. It's nice when you're lazy, and in some cases can improve code readability, but... just, no.
