I consider it a bad idea, to add synonyms for things that are
already in the language. So _adding_ "greater" to the language (do you
really find "greater" or just "gt" more readable as ">"?) is not
the same as using "or" _instead_ of "||".
Perhaps the ".." operator is something to consider (if it isn't
incompatible with somethings else in the language), but most of
the times "range" does it's job very well.
