This behavior is consistent in itself, but it is not consistent with 
most common bracket langages that support ?: opperator.
That also means that you break half of the code that use ?:. You may 
think it is bad writing, but I like the ?: operator to be written like 
that: "a? b: c", and this has been legal for a long time now.
