I don't think = and in represent an elegant duality. They seem a very odd 
couple to me (even though I have been using = in Matlab for 15 years.) On 
the other hand, = and ∈ do seem to offer an elegant duality, since they are 
already synonyms in other contexts. The concept of 'in' also seems more 
logical than '=', which is an assignment operator.

One advantage of = over 'in' is that it sticks out more visually. That is 
solved by ∈, though.
