but ONLY if Method is indeed an OO method, certainly I don't
think anyone prefers
Obj1."+" (Obj2)
to
Obj1 + Obj2
The problem of people confusing tagged types with objects,
and primitive procedures with OO methods is a pretty severe
one, and adopting the prefix notation would most certainly
aggravate the situation.
It is conceivable that one might want to allow the prefix
alternative when wanted, but you certainly do NOT want to
insist on it in all cases.
