Switch already has fall-through semantic which is not desired
for the new inspect statement. Also parsing both the old and
the new "case" syntax can become difficult.

If the compiler sees "inspect (variable) { ... }", it parses
it as a pattern-matching block.
If it sees "int inspect = 5;" or "my_object.inspect()", it treats
it as a completely valid standard identifier.
