I must have overlooked it ... <: seems good to me. I do agree with you
this needs more materialized evidence, I am working on it, in a few
areas more than just DSL/HDL.

For now I have abandoned my local change to cpython and settled with
list assignment signal[:] = thing. This in most case does not conflict
with numeric operations, nor list operations. (HDL signals are both
numbers and a list of individual signals). And it aligns with what it
means with the general python list.

Though, I am really looking forward to the success of <: operator as well ;-)
