It's certainly one of the ones I considered, along with all the other
brackets, and |+|, plus variants It just seemed like it'd be a little
visually confusing where you want to turn the list op into a function
$sum = (+)(@array);
But maybe that's not a problem. But there are other potential
ambiguities besides visual, I suspect.
