Why have __add or __unm at all anyway

A + B == A - (0 - B)
-A == (0 - A)
Killing two birds with one stone ?
Nice shot

Also why have __mul

A * B == A / (1 / B)

No, you cannot remove __mul like that,
Example:

1 * 49 = 49.0
1 / (1/49) = 1 / 0.02040816326530612 = 49.00000000000001


Ah, right, we only have floats. The math is correct tho.
