It's literally sugar for repeating the name and moving the dot to the right.
I think it's clearer than most other compound operators in that it doesn't
affect precedence rules.
`x += y`, for any code `y`, is equivalent to `x = x + (y)`, not `x = x + y`.
`x .= y`, for any code `y`, is equivalent to `x = x . y`, not `x = x . (y)`.
This is not an improvement.
