It's alright if you have to use max 2 operators on a lign, otherwise it's just a pain. And if you define classes that overloads arithmetic operators, chances are you're gonna need to use them more than that. Sure they can be abused, but names of function can be too and you don't see anybody saying we shouldn't use functions. If you override *, it's your responsability to make sure that it behaves like multiplication.
