At first I too thought it would be a bad idea. But on reflection I am not
so sure. Methods are allowed to overload each other. Where is the harm?
What is the worst that could happen if the compiler generated version was
called Add? And would this be better or worse than having to add a
forwarding friendly method for every operator?
