Jokes tend to get downvoted on HN and there's been a few (to many) jokes in this HN post :( Your's the only one I didn't downvote because decided to leave a comment instead.

re: Unicode - Perl6 does already use unicode characters for some of its operators. Take the Hyperoperator »« (http://perlcabal.org/syn/S03.html#Hyper_operators):

  my @a = 1..5;
  my @b = 6..10;
  my @c = @a »*« @b;   # =>  6, 14, 24, 36, 50

And there are >> & << synonyms for those who find using unicode chars too odd:

  @c>>++;   # =>  7, 15, 25, 37, 5
