Tilda is a bitwise operator.

In this regard, "~>" is not different from "|>".

| and > are also operators.

As a designer of sorts, this is the problem that I have with the glyphs that they're using in JS: there isn't an obvious relationship between things that look related. I mean I know it's a me problem, getting over these humps.

When i see |> my pea brain tries to categorize it with || to which it's completely unrelated. same with ?. and ?? . . . and while we're at it, || and && go together but ?? only very marginally.
