For “everything is an expression” https://github.com/tc39/proposal-do-expressions may be of interest, though discussion seems to have paused.

The odd thing is that Civet includes both do expressions and everything is an expression. I'd be happy with either, but both seems like a bad idea.

Do blocks in Civet are mainly to provide shielded scopes (with local declarations). They're currently also necessary to handle declarations (const/let) in the middle of expressions, but hopefully they won't be necessary eventually - only when the user wants to shield scopes. They also have useful forms like `async do` that let you build Promises using await-style code.
