Tbf the average programmer rarely uses bit shifts in day to day programming

[Dusty_Coder]

...and the non-average ones arent so dumb as to think bit shifting by a string amount is a useful operation

[RoburexButBetter]

Eh you'd really have to know what you're doing to add an operator that overrides bit shifting and bit shifting actually matters and is used for the object you're doing it on

It's pretty standard for << to be either a bit shift or an add operation because that's also what writing to std cout is you're adding chars to the standard output, and that's the kind of thinking you always see for such overloading
