I think operator overloading is a pain. As you said: What is the
advantage? For me operators should be defined by the language only
(Pascal) so that everybody who reads the code imediately knows what
happens. Instead you now need additional information (that can be far
away from the code lines you review). That makes code obscure and less
clear. But now there is no way back. It's implemented. Pascal moves in C
direction...
