False positive unused_braces

I tried this code:

#[allow(unreachable_code)]
#[warn(unused_braces)]

fn main() {
    if return { return } { return } else { return }
}

warning: unnecessary braces around `return` value
 --> a.rs:3:15

3 |     if return { return } { return } else { return }
  |               ^^      ^^
  |
  = note: `#[warn(unused_braces)]` on by default
help: remove these braces
  |
3 -     if return { return } { return } else { return }
3 +     if return return { return } else { return }
  |

warning: 1 warning emitted

the suggestion does not compile:

#[allow(unreachable_code)]
#[warn(unused_braces)]

fn main() {
    if return return { return } else { return }
}

=>
