Made a mistake here.  The current spec still have assignment
expressions.  For context, we agreed on keep it because the only place
we would miss this feature would be on *if* and *while* statements.

But we also don't have strong option on keep it. Since it will be little
bit annoying of optimizing the binary.

In conclusion, I believe everyone is Okay on removing it.

PS. Carlos prefers being called Maniero haha :^)
