It seems to me that arbitrarily changing the precedence of a function
would produce a horrible maintenance nightmare.
It would mean recognising what had been done, interpreting the first
example found in a different way than any other code, then tracking
down any other place the trick had been used. (Or determining that
none of the other programs in the system used the same technique.)
