Where is 1?

Steps to reproduce

PS C:\Source\cli-samples\HelloMvc> dotnet run -f net452
2. The project does not support the desired framework: net452

Expected behavior

dunno, either no numbered list at all or the missing part of the message (if one exists)?

Actual behavior

2. The project does not support the desired framework: net452

It would be nice if build, publish and run produced the same error message.

Currently their output is:

$ dotnet run -f net452
2. The project does not support the desired framework: net452
$ dotnet build -f net452
Project '/Users/…/BuildRepository/project.json' does not support framework: .NETFramework,Version=v4.5.2.
$ dotnet publish -f net452
'/Users/…/BuildRepository' cannot be published for 'net452' '<no runtime provided>'

My preference would be towards the current output of build (Project '…' does not support framework: .NETFramework,Version=v4.5.2.)

The root issue of the missing 1. … line is quite simple… classic operator precedence and associativity surprise 🎉

a set of parenthesis is needed here "a" + null == null ? "b" : "c" is always "c" 😉

I’m holding off submitting a PR because there is still dotnet/sdk#5919 and i’m afraid it might break some tooling.
