I don't think I've ever encountered a language where a valid expression could cause unwanted side-effects in an expression using only a single instance of an operator. Sigh.
The operator is fine.
The error you should have encountered was something to the effect of using a reserved word for a variable name. "fileName" is a property of media container objects like players and images, used to reference externally-stored media files. It's also a property of a mainStack, referring to the file it's associated with.
As with more formal languages, a little Hungarian notation goes a long way, not only in making the nature of variables more distinct but also in avoiding conflicts with reserved words:
