I agree. Their complaint on the use cases (pun!) for switch seem to ignore the flexibility of the syntax. I don't think the requirement to include breaks/return

I agree. Their complaint on the use cases (pun!) for switch seem to ignore the flexibility of the syntax. I don't think the requirement to include breaks/returns is a problem if you know how it's intended to work. I prefer switches for the easy to follow flow but also the ability to "waterfall" multiple conditions, which is syntactically clunky with other approaches.
