I may have immediately latched onto this, dubbing it the "one-eyed monkey operator", the moment the generalized unpacking released.

I always hated the lack of an empty set literal, and enjoyed having this exist just to fill that asymmetry with the other built-in collection types (that said, I never use it in production code, nor teach it in classes I run).
