A photo of an opened semi-trailer unloading a cargo van, with the cargo van rear door open revealing an even smaller blue smart car inside, with each vehicle captioned as “macOS”, “Linux VM” and “Docker” respectively in decreasing font size. Onlookers in the foreground of the photo gawk as a worker opens each vehicle door, revealing a scene like that of russian dolls.

For a serious reoly, I think the expression “If they have eggs, buy two” is redundant. If they didn’t have eggs, the kid just can’t and won’t buy any eggs.
I think the proper command would be, “Please buy 1 bottle of milk and two eggs.” That way, the kid won’t be confused and it’s still a proper valid command.
Unfortunately though, the sentence is ambiguous even to non-programmers. It is unknown whether the if condition applies to
buying two eggs (buy two eggs)
buying two bottles of milk (buy two bottles instead)
