        * What is your evaluation of the proposal?
+1. Although I would prefer something like:

precedence(greaterThan: LogicalAnd)

to:

precedence(> LogicalAnd)

I think the latter is more difficult to read, and I just find the idea of
using an operator in an operator/precendencegroup definition strange.

        * Is the problem being addressed significant enough to warrant a
change to Swift?
Yes
        * Does this proposal fit well with the feel and direction of Swift?
Yes. Magical numbers are definitely not used elsewhere in the language.
        * If you have used other languages or libraries with a similar
feature, how do you feel that this proposal compares to those?
N/A
        * How much effort did you put into your review? A glance, a quick
reading, or an in-depth study?
Read the proposal
