Bug in about_if documentATION

Just for fun i thought i'd read about_if, i guess most people skip this chapter, atleast i did.

The following shows the if statement syntax:
if (<test1>)
{<code_block1>}
[elseif (<test2)
{<code_block2>}]
[else
<code_block3>}]

Seems there's a bug in the syntax for else, it's missing an opening curly-brace

PS> if($true) {"yes"} else "no"}
Missing statement block after 'else' keyword.
At line:1 char:24
+ if($true) {"yes"} else " <<<< no"}

Anyone noticed and reported a bug on this?

Well spotted. I've looked at that a number of times and not noticed
