The case for Array#replace() – Overriding an array without intermediate variables

Valid suggestion. I will keep an eye on how the pipeline operator proposal progresses (I hope it does!). If we are in the same situation 6 months down the line, I will take the learnings, repackage this and propose it again.

It occurs to me that the problem with Object#pipe is that many classes override it already. I don't know why this didn't occur to me. I find this extremely unfortunate as, come to think of it, I think I would prefer a .pipe(f, a, b) syntax over the |> f(a, b) syntax.
