This issue might go deeper - I was not successful in passing R CMD checks for the usage files. R CMD check kept showing errors for `@` declarations, even thou they were identical to `$` declarations (which passed fine).

Seems like the usage check functions are not prepared for `@` - also in tools:::.S3_method_markup_regexp

But after some investigation I found that “roxygen2” is using tools:::.get_internal_S3_generis() to decide if the method should be exported as S3method or not. For some reason “@<-“ is listed in there, but “@“ is not.
