It was thus said that the Great Soni L. once stated:

You know, we have error(), but it uses pcall... How can I add a Return()

   Could you go into more detail about the problem that this will solve?  Or
at least, how it would look in source?

   -spc



if x or Return(nil, "missing x") then ... end

vs

if not x then
  return nil, "missing x"
else
  ...
end
It's literally a function like error() tightly coupled to the core, and doesn't replace the return statement.
