Android Question If then else structure

[wonder]

Is there any difference between the following?

Option 1:

Sub Something as Boolean
    If Condition Then
        Return True
    Else
        Return False
    End If
End Sub

Option 2:

Sub Something as Boolean
    If Condition Then Return True
    Return False
End Sub

I dont think so but why not just:

Return Condition

it will compile to the same code because thanks to our fast processor they can do better optimizing which follows/tracks code paths.

it "sees" that both cases end with a return so it will generate example2 for both. I believe they even trash the commands after the if/then as they will never be used/reached.
