And also allowed: A is B in C A in B is C I'm not sure these are any better than the ones you've chosen to disallow :) If you want to push for these to be disallowed, I would recommend doing it first in a linter or code quality tool. That's a completely safe way to try it out, with no language changes at all. Reject them automatically in code review, or even as a pre-commit/pre-push hook (or equivalent in your own source control system). If it's done at the syntactic level, there's absolutely no recourse, and any code anywhere that uses these chained comparisons will be suddenly broken.
