I don’t understand. Why aren’t both those variants possible? They’re both 
static I believe. The first is mutating the left side value and the second is a 
clone (the most common operation for += )

class operator + (var left: TIntArray; const right: T);
class operator + (constref left: TIntArray; const value: T): TIntArray;
