I am 99.99% sure of the contrary, having used this syntax for more than 3 y=
ears now, as the users of the Karrigell framework with the HTMLTags module

Another point why there is no possible confusion is that when <=3D is a com=
parison operator, it is never used in an standalone expression like "a <=3D=
 b", with the left term of the comparison starting the line ; it is always =
used in an expression like "if x <=3D 10", "while x <=3D 5", "assert x <=3D=
 0", "return foo <=3D bar" etc.

So when you see a line like

doc <=3D DIV('hello')

it should be obvious that you are not *comparing* doc and DIV('hello'), bec=
ause if it was the case, the line would do nothing
