The versions of Information I was on did not support THEN on the reads until the 90s. Once it was available we jumped on it. Exactly. I've only ever really used INFORMATION and UV. OK, "IF" always supported THEN, but I was so used to all the other stuff like READ, WRITE, OPEN etc not having it, that I saw no reason to necessarily use it in IFs either. Plus, in my other main languages, THEN and ELSE are optional (or not supported, even!) in FORTRAN, and optional in C. At the end of the day, I wrote the conditional in whatever form seemed easiest to understand, and then used THEN or ELSE as appropriate.
