Any other use cases besides shifting?

[orangy]

It applies only to infix functions that have their receiver of the same type as return type (or compatible in some way)

I'd rather see real bitwise operators 😀

[hudsonb]

or= and and= would also be use cases

I have a hard time visually parsing superAwesomeNumber shl= 3 as something other than (superAwesomeNumber shl)= 3 so I think if this proposal is accepted I’d like to make sure that the syntax highlighting is distinct in the IDE.

I find it much faster to read because it's not literal
