You should pick up Lisp. The whole concept of a binary operator
doesn't exist over there. All the things binary operators can do, Lisp
does with 0, 1, 2, or more arguments.

[1]> (+)
0
[2]> (+ 1)
1
[3]> (+ 1 2)
3
[4]> (+ 1 2 3)
6

Once you get used to that, binary operators don't seem so useful
anymore.

The equivalent in Python is dropping the operators and replacing them
with built-in functions that take 0, 1, 2, or more arguments.
