I hope this is a joke.
Lets try not to reinvent Perl.

Thanks. Dmitry.

Hi internals!

For consistency, we should add a spaceship assignment operator:

    $a <=3D>=3D $b;
    // same as
    $a =3D ($a <=3D> $b);

Additionally, we should add an is-identical assignment operator:

    $a =3D=3D=3D=3D $b;
    // same as
    $a =3D ($a =3D=3D=3D $b);

Thank you for taking this proposal under consideration.

Regards,
Nikita
