I'm okay with the code adjustments here, but I'm afraid I don't follow
the description: How is shadowing of "i" connected to the use of
leading underscores in macro parameter names? I think you need to
separate the two aspects in the wording.

Isn't there another rule demanding parenthization of the whole
construct? If so, adding the then-missing parentheses right here would
be quite desirable. (Personally I'm happy about them not being there on
suffix expressions, as kind of an exception to the general rule.)

The lack of parentheses here definitely wants dealing with right away.
