Yes but to create a MATLAB replacement, you need operator overloading too,
so that you can do things like add matrices.

And by the way, "<>" is used for "not equal" in Basic, so maybe "<=>" would
be better for "equivalent", and this is the mathematical symbol for
equivalent propositions.  Then "<>" could be used for "not equivalent" (less
than or greater than).

But this might be quite useful.  It would be great to see a discussion about
what is the best way to do generic operator overloading, and then to
implement this in BeanShell.
