Unexpected Weird Ternary warning.

[microwheels]

I have the following lines at the end of a javascript function. When I ran JSLint on it I get a 'weird ternary' warning on the last line.

        return node === null
            ? {'node': this.storeContentsNode, 'placement': undefined}
            : {'node': node.domNode, 'placement': 'after'};

If I'm doing something wrong I'd like to know but the warning message isn't particularly helpful.

After a little investigation it appears this may be a bug with JSLint itself misinterpreting the colon in the object literal. Can't get a straight answer from google though.

Actually, after looking through the JSLint source, it would appear that its flagging the "weird ternary" error because the two alternate objects you return as so similar:

[https://github.com/douglascrockford/JSLint/blob/256cf8decf04e7dc9012176d81c90b7128fcd30d/jslint.js#L2552]

if (are_similar(that.second, that.third)) {
      colon.warn('weird_ternary');
} else if (are_similar(that.first, that.second)) {
     that.warn('use_or');
}

Just one of the many undocumented strange things that JSLint does. Is this a bug? Not in the traditional sense of the word I think.
