Hi Björn

`=>` is usually used in combination expressions (arrays, yield, arrow
functions). `:` is mostly used for switch cases and the alternative
control structure syntax [1]. `=>` also visually separates the
condition and expression better IMO. This has been suggested once
before but that's not enough for me to change it at this point.

The future scope mentions possible block support for arrow functions
in the future (`fn() => {}`) but we use arrows or colons in match
doesn't matter.
Thanks for your feedback! :)
