    .. is not overloadable.
    Is this because the overload moudule doesn't allow for it, or because it's truly not overloadable? I'm honetsly curious...

    That was what I guessed, but I had the same thought as thor, which to me is more important.

    There must be some technical difficulty underneath, that made them to choose a easy way out and disable the ability to overload range operator. But I am on the same page as thor, logically there is no ground for that, and hopefully this will be opened up in the future.
