Unsurprisingly, the translation engine in Brython transforms x <= y into x.__le__(y)

If x is a string, then __le__ means of course "lesser or equal" so y can only be a string, otherwise an exception is raised ; this is similar to trying to add a child node to a text node in the DOM

dom_elt <= obj actually adds one or several DOM nodes (it depends of the class of obj) to the DOM node represented by dom_elt. It's difficult to explain all the cases here, you would have to take a look at the code in py_dom.js, but <= and + work on the DOM tree, there is no document.write anywhere
