Only very-well-documented operators (Chapter 4.1.6) are parens-optimized (+-*/%); this topic was reviewed from Tom. When using ^ or user defined other operators, they will be decorated with (maybe useless) parens.Still, if there's something not precise, it should be cleared. Which tough assumptions are made that seem doubtful to you?
It just seemed complex to figure out which operators needed parens and
which didn't.
