Do we still need `%||%` available in base R ? #1486

Not sure when the function was introduced in base R though. Depending on the compatibility issues, we might want to remove or keep it.

On a similar note, R v4.1. integrated the pipe in base R |>

@Yuri05 could you check if %||% is supported in R4.1? If so, we should remove our own implementation of it.

AI tells that %||% is supported since R 3.5 :) And it works indeed in R 3.6 and R 4.1 (rlangmust be loaded first)

%||% was introduced in R 4.1:

Btw, the best way to figure out what was introduced in what R version is to use the following app! 🙌
