[snip discussion of why current augmented assignment operators are
better for other reasons]
Are there any similar arguments for .=?
It doesn't make anything more efficient, however all of the suggestions
of how to do it with current syntax (mostly decorators) _do_ make things
less efficient.
So rather than a win/win as with current augmented assignment
(compact/clearer code *and* potentially a performance improvement), it's
now a tradeoff (wordy code *or* a performance reduction).
