+                            Now that "if", "then", and "else" are keywords, it is not clear whether
+                            there is any benefit in keeping dependencies.  It is frequently
+                            misunderstood and seems to be rarely used.  Depending on feedback
+                            with "if", "then", and "else", this keyword may well be removed in a
+                            future draft.

                         This keyword specifies rules that are evaluated if the instance is an object and
                         contains a certain property.
