I do not think that this is syntactic sugar. Compare this 2 block of code. Which
is easier to read? I am not asking the level to be at bash
shell script, (that would be great).
Hopefully you get the idea that I am trying to communicate here. switch compare to
if-else-chain is better to write and also avoided the
compilation error.

if (match(str, regex("abc|def|as+b?")) {
   s1();
}else if (match(str, regex("za+|wd?|aaa")){ // a lot of () and | ... might have
missed out one of them
   s2();
}else{
   s3()
}
