URI re-mapping using try_files

Hmm, I read on nginx website and elsewhere that if statement may not work
consistently within a location directive, and is generally discouraged.
Should I worry in this case?

I only want to repeat the final after-slash part, so any
'/public/doc/blahA/blahB' should only look for
'/public/doc/blahA/blahB/blahB.html'. Would that change anything in the
config proposed here?

Thanks again!
