The correct answer should be the person who wrote it would get told off for writing code that a person reading would have no idea what the code was doing (without understanding the precedence). Whilst it's good to have clear understandable, well defined rules for these things, that's no excuse for having unreadable code that other people can't read and understand without having to remember obscure rules. Personally, I'd hope that any code-linting tools would flag such expressions as potentially bad because they're not clear. (Whereas bracketed expressions instantly help here).
