@Michael : I'm not sure to understand what you mean.
The "&=" operator does a bitwise AND. But if it was an
assignment-by-reference operator, maybe an assignment-by-cloning operator
would have seemed a good idea?

Some people write code using "=&" like a dedicated operator. For example:
   $i = 3;
   $j =& $i;

(yes, I know they should write "$j = &$i;")

It would be an "inverted equivalent" if we were able to write :
   $i = new Int(3);
   $j := $i;
