That is what I keep repeating when people complain about operator overloading.

It is just symbolic names, like doing abstract mathematics with letters instead of numbers.

Except for C, Java and Go, all the remaining mainstream languages allow for symbolic names in the functions/methods.

I never understood what was the big deal.
