My point was that adding parentheses around the tightest-binding operator is a common, clear, and usually insignificant, way of demonstrating operator precedence. So FOR THAT USE they must not change evaluation of the expression. Obviously if you put them anywhere else, they change evaluation. Nice job knocking down a straw man.
