Reported in our private beta here: https://github.com/posit-dev/positron-beta/issues/159

What did you expect to happen?

We should treat = the same as <- and other assignment operators

Were there any error messages in the output or Developer Tools console?

Not that I believe are related

In Positron 2024.05.0 (Universal) build 1157, we now treat = as a regular assignment operator and I see no PROBLEMS:
