Well, consistency is king. And you may introduce a bug without noticing if
during refactoring you change a switch statement into an if statement. 

__switch might seem a bit obscure though from the way it looks.. If the
different semantics of "if (auto x = ..)" and "switch (auto x = ..)" isn't
really a big issue then I'm all for it.
