Taking only the lhs into account doesn't work in Patrick's code because he has untyped variables. The Dog is only on the rhs. This is why I think we need a binary dispatch. I don't see much use for the type of the LHS, though. C++ dispatches assignment on the declared type of the container on the LHS. This hardly makes sense in Perl 6.
I agree. I'm in the middle of a deep meditation on this, and will post later ... maybe in a few days, maybe tonight, depending on my muse.
