Description
Top level returns have been supported since Ruby 2.4. But top level returns with arguments are automatically detected since Ruby 2.7. The return argument of the top level returns is always ignored.
Bad practice
# Detected since Ruby 2.7
return 1 # 1 is always ignored.
Recommended
# Allowed since Ruby 2.4
return
