Comment:
This sounds like a simple enough strategy, to make it a special case. With
or without an option to turn it on/off.
There is another similar character, ⋋, which is "left semidirect
product" of mathematical symbols. Or ⋀ for "n-ary logical and". Sorry I
don't have the unicode ID. So the error message from GHC is real and would
have made sense if it were seen under a Unicode terminal. I wonder, some
way to use lower case lambda letter as an identifier, aliased to actual
lambda syntax? Thanks!
