Associativity is unrelated to evaluation order.
It seems natural to me that the stuff on the associated side would be evaluated before the stuff on the other, but that doesn't mean that it's the best way to go. It's just what I would have expected. So, if there's a good reason to do it differently, then I don't necessarily have a problem with that. - Jonathan M Davis
