Hi guys,

I'm wondering, why?

ProtoObject>> ~~ anObject
��� "Answer whether the receiver and the argument are not the same object
��� (do not have the same object pointer)."

��� self == anObject
��� ��� ifTrue: [^ false]
��� ��� ifFalse: [^ true]

Instead of:
ProtoObject>> ~~ anObject
��� "Answer whether the receiver and the argument are not the same object
��� (do not have the same object pointer)."

��� ^(self == anObject) not

And why?
Object >> ~= anObject
��� "Answer whether the receiver and the argument do not represent the
��� same object."

��� ^self = anObject == false
��� ��
Instead of
Object>> ~= anObject
��� "Answer whether the receiver and the argument do not represent the
��� same object."

��� ^(self = anObject) not.

Is there any particular reason for this that I'm missing?
Thanks in advance!
