To me, this is the most promising direction, but I’d suggest the use of
“unwrap" as the keyword. If you compare these two:
a) guard let foobar = foobar else { … }
b) guard unwrap foobar else { … }
I think that b) wins by virtue of eliminating repetition ("foobar = foobar"
fails DRY principles), but retains clarity by introducing a word into the
grammar that people already commonly know and use, and which is googlable if
they don’t.
I find b) to be quite convincing.
Best,
