I actually like them. I think that the = should be a comparison
operator, not a silly ==. I think that comparisons using = are much
clearer, especially since you often write many of them in a row,
whereas you almost always make one assignment per line.

I use := every day in PL/SQL, and it's one of the few positive
syntactical features of the language.
