Okay, so if we allow

x = 1

should we also allow

x is 1

IMO, 'we' already allow "x is 1" because "is" implies an equality test.

The equivalent "English-like" form of an assignment would be something like
 x becomes 1

and I'd really rather we didn't do that :-)

I don't care, I just love a good controversy. ;-)

That's both the best and the worst aspect of this list :-) :-)

I tried to stay out of this discussion - I really, really did - but failed in the end.
