masak good news everyone! 09:52
the majority of the 007 operators can now be found in the built-ins :)
the notable exception is infix:<=>, but I'm hopeful I can turn it into a built-in macro 09:53

masak heh -- but an initial attempt to turn infix:<=> into a built-in macro failed. proximally because macros expand into other stuff, and we're testing on the Qtree in some of the tests. 10:33
but there was also something wrong with the expansion itself. didn't delve deeper into it. 10:34
we've already identified that "expand-but-don't-expand" is a good default for things like linters. 10:35
maybe some macros could request that as well? it seems far more convenient if the infix:<=> stays as it is in the program Qtree. as long as when we evaluate it, we know what it "really" means. 10:36
vendethiel o/ 11:05
