I reject your slippery slope argument that we'd have to remove
operator.add. Not that we'd be able to tell, but + is not callable. Or
would that change as well? (Actually the more I briefly consider
making in place operators the callables that perform the represented
operation, the more attractive it seems, if it doesn't blow the parser
out of the water.)
