All non-ASCII operators have ASCII equivalents:

Speaking of which the advantage of, say, « over << is that the former is _one_ charachter. But Y, compared to ¥, is one charachter only as well, and is even more visually distinctive with most fonts I know of, afaict, so is there any good reason to keep the latter as the "official" one?!?
