Eck, I'd hate to see side-effect assignment in mIRC scripting. It's shady enough in other programming languages, in a supposedly "newb-friendly" language like mIRC's it'd only cause trouble and abuse. It's also redundant since in 99% of cases you can use $v1 instead.

I don't see why supporting two ways to do exactly the same thing would be beneficial. As this thread has already shown, <> is not nearly as clear in its function as != and in the few languages besides BASIC in which it is supported it's usually considered deprecated or obsolete.
