Because you can get the effects you want now using function call notation,
and because so many people (not me) hate this kind of thing that it would
never ever get approved for inclusion in Ada. IMO, of course.
Note that allowing in out mode for functions is also an upward compatible
extension, arguably more useful than shortcut operators, and that still
didn't make it into the language.
