that is no Lua syntax
if true then;
  print("true")
else;
  print("false")
end

This snippet fed into a standalone Lua interpreter prints “true” on
the terminal.

I admit, I did not look up the syntax in the manual, but I have in
mind that semicolons can be used to separate statements that are on
one line.
