I don't think that would be a big issue. Python uses '=' also differently from a number of languages. My preference would currently be for ':=' because I have the impression that if you don't leave spaces the period in '.=' tends to be obscured.
x.=42 vs x:=42
seems a clear win for the second IMO.
I'm forced to agree. So I'll use the latter syntax if I end up writing anything further about rebinding :)
Cheers, Nick.
