The current design depends on whitespace to decide whether an operator is
infix, postfix, or prefix. It can be surprising to some folks when they first
encounter it, but IMO it encourages more maintainable code to be written.
The one thing that I’d love to see fixed is to enhance the error produced for
things like:
let x = y*-z
to produce a fixit, which rewrites it as:
let x = y * -z
