I understand why smartmatch is labeled experimental, but what's the "modern Perl" replacement for given/when? I only use it as a stupid switch statement but I don't want it breaking with Perl 5.22 either...

I feel like I was given the impression that they wanted to get smart match "right" and not abandon it. I guess my use of smart match was a mistake. =(
