Oh, I should have pointed out how to do what you actually meant to do:
perl6 -e 'my $x = "abc123def456";
my $y = "123";
if $x.contains($y & "abc" & none("789")) { say "Yes" }
else { say "No" }'
Yes
This uses a "none" junction, which takes part in the whole junction
evaluation process, as opposed to the prefix:<!> which just negates a
value straight-up and doesn't know it's being used inside a junction.
