Right. I suspect that as people get more experience with the new
Perl 6 compiler the 2 operand ops will go away (or vice versa).

At the very least, ops will be ordered so that frequent ops are
nearby each other. If an infrequent op doesn't save more CPU time
than blowing the instruction cache wastes, it's a net loss.
