It being faster has nothing to do with the syntactical appearance of the operator. I think it's more pertinent to ask why does .chain_try or .tries or .fetches need a special operator than whether it's a convenient addition.
- vidarh 11y agoIt doesn't need a special operator for other reason than that by specifying the VM-level behaviour it can be made a lot more efficient. And at that point naming it after something that are legal method names would be problematic.
