How did you do that, given that those operators are (as you say) non-

No, I did not modify ruby source (for “it is not the right thing” :).
What I did was just cleaning (DRYing) up the code. And as Logan
correctly
observed came to that ‘code’. Since it cannot be done in the way I
wrote
it by adding two methods to the foo class which did the trick.
But it looks like others are bumping into similar/same repeating
patterns,
so something like that would be nice to have
