Note that list associativity (X) only works between identical operators.
If two different list-associative operators have the same precedence,
they are assumed to be left-associative with respect to each other.

For optimization purposes, Perl 6 gives the top-level application the
right to close and finalize classes by the use of C<oo>, a pragma for
selecting global semantics of the underlying object-oriented engine:
