Correct, but
> LABEL BLOCK is valid perl syntax.
to be more precise
LABEL: and { NAKED BLOCK } are already valid in isolation, they don't need to be compounded.

OK, then, yes, it's a label. I saw else with a colon and didn't even think about labels, even though I've used them many times over the years.
Actually, it seems a little odd that a keyword is permitted to be used in this fashion, but whatever.
Thanks for the explanation. I'm gonna blame it on Guido, lol.
