Augh. I've got to file this as a bug. That was supposed to be

1. print iif(myFlyUnzipped, lambda: "aiee!", lambda: "phew!")

2. print if myFlyUnzipped: "aiee!" else: "phew!"

3. print iif(myFlyUnzipped, l: "aiee!", l: "phew!")

for current use, proposed if: else: syntax, and a mostly facetious lambda:
-> l: proposal.
