I'm not convinced programmers even need a mnemonic for < and >. After all, they'll read and write those glyphs millions of times in their lifetime.

At least for me, the metaphors that I used to learn the symbols as a child have become my enduring mental models of those constructions, even if they're not actually needed to recall them any more.
