≥ instead of >= might be an improvement because that's a symbol learned in school, but ultimately the student still needs to learn what `>=` means as it will be used most of the time.
But in my school I learned ⩾, not ≥. It was used in USSR and I believe in other European countries (maybe it is French or Germany tradition?).
If Python will become accepting ≥ as an alias of >=, I insist that it should accept also ⩾. And ⊃, because it is the symbol used for superset relations for sets (currently written as >= in Python). And maybe other national or domain specific mathematical symbols. Imagine confusion when >=, ≥, ⩾ and ⊃ are occurred in the same program.
