Sorry, Richard, I respectfully disagree.
People learning a new environment are constantly confused when
there are too many ways to do the same thing. Same is true of a
programming language. One of the fundamental design principles
behind Python is that there should be only one right way to do
anything. One man's variety is another's confusion.

A single-token assignment operator would be a nice OPTION. Those
who prefer the traditional form would never need to deal with it,
while those of us who are comfortable with it could use it. I see
no downside and many upsides as Rev expands the range of people it
might appeal to....
