Mouse 2002 introduced an Else operator? Did it forget about "If then else considered harmful" from 1975?

I came across this about 10 years ago and was able to port it to Kyan Pascal on the Commodore 64 without much tweaking.

Given its age, I thought this language had a chance to predate the eponymous computer mouse, but nope. It was created a good decade after the first documented reference to computer mice [0].
