overloading assignment operators

Sorry.  Quick review of how C++ does it indicates that
selecting an assignment operator from the lvalue's methods
makes sense.

Since we have dynamic typing, there's nothing keeping an
assignment method from running through a set of things it
would like to be assigned, and interrogating the rvalue to
see if it can provide them.

But is there really an advantage, or is it just a neat trick?
