Description
Hi!
First of all, thanks for this beautiful font. I've been using it for a couple of years, without issues. However, with the ReScript language, there's an annoying ligature in the following snippets showcasing optional labelled arguments syntax in combination with generics:
~title: option<string>=?,
~getDocumentImpl: DocumentPicker.options => Promise.t<
DocumentPicker.result,
>=DocumentPicker.getDocumentAsync,
It would be great if we had a variant that disallows the "greater than or equal" ligature in case there's any non-whitespace character after the >= sequence. In that case, I'd be able to use it specifically in ReScript files.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the ReScript snippets in FiraCode and compare the current greater-than-or-equal ligature behavior with the requested context. Done means a usable variant prevents that ligature when a non-whitespace character follows >= while preserving the existing behavior elsewhere.
