A ^ prefix visually interferes a lot more with the op being

due to other factors).

If we're talking about operators being "hypered," then I think that «op» makes a lot of sense. It reminds me of Perl 5's "spaceship" operator, <=>, and I think of a spaceship taking the operator and jumping into hyperspace. What could be a better analogy than that, quantumly speaking?

Plus, it turns out not to be at all hard to type on Mac OS X. ;-)
