==

Wouldn't it make more sense if the = operator tested for equality and == assigned? Since == is repeated and more emphatic?

For me, ← is “Alt Gr + y”, two keystrokes, while := is “Shift + .” and “Shift + 0”, a total of 4.

← is clearly vastly superior, and it's counterpart, →, allows for the variable the expression's assigned to to be on the right, allowing you to code in whichever way's more natural to you (which is a good thing, no matter how many FIOC-enthusiasts tell you otherwise).
