## Conditional Expressions
All conditional logic is handled by a single ternary expression structure, which *always* returns a value. If a condition is false and no \`else\` branch exists, or if the executed block doesn't produce a value (e.g., its last statement is an assignment), the expression evaluates to \`-0\` (null).
