Noe that we have gained ^ back from being a hyeroperator, could we not have ^ as a polymorphic complement operator. It can always be combined with ~ or + to force context, eg $a = ^ +$b; $a = ^ ~$b; We would then have a complement operator that I would assume objects could overload and do whatever they liked with.
