    In this case, yes.

    The old behavior is deprecated (a.k.a lo longer recommended for use due to expected removal in the future), but the operator is marked as "experimental" because they hope to come up with a new behavior for it rather than removing the operator completely.

    From perl5180delta: "It is clear that smartmatch is almost certainly either going to change or go away in the future. Relying on its current behavior is not recommended."
