Are you talking about the `else` being non-symmetric? You don't need it at all. I do this.

  if (c == 1) { first case ; }
  if (c == 2) { second case; }

...and hereby I give back my programming license and go back to civil life.
This might result in another fallthrough scenario though, wouldn't it?
No, because `c` can't be 1 and 2 at the same time.
In this specific example. But you cannot rule it out in general.
