Has been advocated before, notably in the Practice of Programming: "Parentheses specify grouping and can be used to make the intent clear even when they are not required. (...) Seasoned program- mers might omit them, because the relational operators (< <= == ! = >= >) have higher precedence than the logical operators (&& and ||). When mixing unrelated operators, though, it's a good idea to parenthesix. C and its friends present pernicious precedence problems, and it's easy to make a mistake."
