Isn't the second else supposed to be outside at the same level as the first else?
if(){ }else{ if{} }else{ return{} }
No, because that would not result in a meaningful execution branch; if we abstract away the code inside the braces we get
if (condition) { foo(); } else { bar(); } else { baz(); }
but what would that mean? When would baz() ever be called?
baz()
