            //
            // The correct rules are spelled out in the spec:
            //
            // Spec §7.17.2:
            // An operation of the form x op= y is processed by applying binary operator overload 
            // resolution (§7.3.4) as if the operation was written x op y. 
            // Let R be the return type of the selected operator, and T the type of x. Then,
            //
            // * If an implicit conversion from an expression of type R to the type T exists, 
            //   the operation is evaluated as x = (T)(x op y), except that x is evaluated only once. 
            //   [no cast is inserted, unless the conversion is implicit dynamic]
            // * Otherwise, if 
            //   (1) the selected operator is a predefined operator, 
            //   (2) if R is explicitly convertible to T, and 
            //   (3.1) if y is implicitly convertible to T or 
            //   (3.2) the operator is a shift operator... [then cast the result to T]
            // * Otherwise ... a binding-time error occurs.

            // So let's tease that out. There are two possible errors: the conversion from the
            // operator result type to the left hand type could be bad, and the conversion
            // from the right hand side to the left hand type could be bad. 
            //
            // We report the first error under the following circumstances:
            //
            // * The final conversion is bad, or
            // * The final conversion is explicit and the selected operator is not predefined

            // We report the second error under the following circumstances:

            // * The final conversion is explicit, and

            // T.false(X.op_Implicit_To_Nullable_T(temp)) ?

            //     T.&(op_Implicit_To_T(temp), y)

            // T.false(new T?(temp)) ? temp : T.&(temp, y)
