This is the reasoning that gave us the C++ stdio system, where:

cout << "Hello, world!\n";

is the way to make console output. Quite frankly, I don't like it;
when I write C++ code, I use printf same as in C. I'd much rather work
with methods than with operators that try to look like the flowing of
data, but actually have a quite different meaning.
