• What is your evaluation of the proposal?

+1. I'm always up for removing duplicated code.

• Is the problem being addressed significant enough to warrant a change to Swift?

Yes. It pairs well with the other operator/assignment operators (e.g. *=, +=, etc...).

• Does this proposal fit well with the feel and direction of Swift?

Yes.

• If you have used other languages or libraries with a similar feature, how do you feel that this proposal compares to those?

Seems fairly identical to other languages that allow this.

• How much effort did you put into your review? A glance, a quick reading, or an in-depth study?

I read the review and a few of the replies in conversation thread.
