Brandon Craig Rhodes <bran...@rhodesmill.org> added the comment:

But if we allow for ellipsis, then would we not also have to start allowing 
characters like ≥ and ≤ in Python? And the problem with any of these 
(admittedly very attractive) substitutions is that they seem to abandon the 
principle of there being One Obvious Way of typing any given expression. 
Instead there would now be several alternate ways, with different styles in 
different codebases and, I think, something of a visual and symbolic mess 
resulting. I like each symbol to have exactly one possible representation.
