I have to go and look in the documentation because I expect the union operator to be '+'.

Anyone raised on Pascal is likely to find + and * more
natural. Pascal doesn't have bitwise operators, so it
re-uses + and * for set operations. I like the economy
of this arrangement -- it's not as if there's any
other obvious meaning that + and * could have for sets.
