OK, you've flagellated this deceased equine enough that I'm calling the ASPCA. I get that you're unhappy that we don't have deep append. Everyone gets this. I simply don't care; shallow append is better than no append at all, and having shallow append does not block deep append from happening in 9.6. The only question worth discussing is whether we change the operator to "+" (or, for that matter, something else). I've seen your vote on this, so, does anyone else have an opinion on "+" vs. "||"?
