I'm not keen on it because it will be hard to explain
(or detect) the difference between that and:
sub hidden (str $name, int $force //= $override) {...}
What I most like about the C<is> syntax is (like methods in
OO Perl), it associates a meaningful *name* with each
deviation from standard behaviour.
I find:
sub hidden (str $name, int $force is aka($override)) {...}
*much* more readable, since I can read it in English.
