Value types are supposed to be implementable in hardware if available. You
are assuming they are objects with reference semantics. That contradicts
their purpose and why we are discussing them as a new kind of type.
I was talking about decimal proxies, not decimal primitives itself.
Nothing
The reason === comes up with value types/proxies is the goal of supporting
decimal and other number types, where 1.1m ===
something_computing_fresh_1_1m() must be true.
If 1.1m was defined as singleton proxy, then === would work correctly,
because both 1.1m and give_new_1_1() return the same
Hello everyone,
My idea is to disallow overwriting of === operator, and make 'compare'
operator implement == instead. Why?
1. === means for me that two variables have reference to the same
object, so there is no point of overwriting it. Many programmers would
be confused.
2. == always caused
By overwriting I meant creating a trap for === operator. Sorry for confusion.

I don't understand. What is overwriting an operator?
