the difference is this compound (array-like) example dont uses defined

Here the switch looks clearer. Write it with 300 cases instead of 3,
then that becomes obvious.

and switch case overally the word case is ok imo but the word switch is
overrally like wrong imo switch could be better replaced by two
word "select" and maybe "goto" as this swich that selects could use
select and this one wgo does goto could use word goto

the calling sign shuld be needed as as for years i wanted to do something like
void foo()
{
a {/**/}
b {/**/}
c {/**/}
  a;b;b;c; //calls a calls b twice calls c
}
( you  can alse make expressions of it a+b*c (where a,b,c are code blocks)
then if using
1 {/**/}
2 {/**/}
3 {/**/}
"A" {/**/}
"B" {/**/}
"CCC" {/**/}
it would clash with normal usage
lika printf("CCC");
so some operator to call it is needed (and it could wrk as swich if you allow to call it on variable not immediate value
