Perl doesn't have a destructuring assignment because it's a workaround for the inability to return multiple values that Perl has naturally.

[ a, b, ...rest ] // ES6 { a:4, b:5, ...rest } // ES6

is the same as

[ $a, $b, @rest ] # Perl { a=>4, b=>5, %rest } # Perl

Alternatively, you could argue that ... is known as ->@* and ->%* in Perl.

[ a, b, ...[ c, d ] ] // ES6 { a:4, b:5, ...{ c:6, d:7 } } // ES6

is the same as

[ $a, $b, [ $c, $d ]->@* ] # Perl { a=>4, b=>5, { c=>6, d=>7 }->%* } # Perl

Update: Changed the layout of the answer.
