FWIW I don't think we need all "4", just like we don't need `unless` as a
pair to current `if` or `until` as a pair for current `while` loop.
I.e. we have "continue" with current `where`, and you can use boolean
inversion `!`. As for "break"(while) - my opinion the for-in loop will be
more powerful and adds fun for coding (from wwdc keynote - "Swift is a
powerful language.. writing Swift code is *fun*..." my opinion: using
guard-continue or guard-break is *not* fun ).
So in your words, it is better add *one* then remove *one*.
The only question I'm not sure about if we should keep 'where' and 'while'
keywords for these features, or rename them. For me it's OK to have 'where'
and 'while' but probably I'll support another more clear keywords.

For those particular keywords, I’d prefer having them (or equivalents). I’m not
sure if I’d prefer having *all* of them—`where/unless` and `while/until`—or
just one from each “pair”…I could go either way.
In the proposal, my recommendations for including all 4 are:
break: while / until
continue: if (formerly `where`) / unless
As the thread has had sufficient redundancy, I'll refrain from making my case
again for why I think it's better to remove the one than add the three.
