Comment (by tibbe):

 I agree with generalizing (++). Are there any programs that will break
 because of that generalization? My argument for reusing (++) is that I'd
 like to keep the number of different operators I have to memorize (in
 particular when reading other people's code) to a minimum. I only think
 very fundamental type classes deserve operators (e.g. Monad, Functor,
 Monoid, Num).
