What is your opinion of using the infix operator hack in production code? Issues:

  • The effect this will have on speed.
  • The potential for a clashes with an object with these operators already defined. This seems particularly dangerous with generic code that is intended to handle objects of any type.

It is a shame that this isn't built in - it really does improve readability
