Am I the only one that doesn't trust order of operations as a stylistic approach?

Like, if I need to compute "(a * b) + c", it just feels grossly wrong and naked to write it as "a * b + c" even though they're functionally identical.

@LouisIngenthron I have the opposite opinion. I never want to see
(((x * y) / 4) + a).
That's a mess. It should be
x * y / 4 + a
Ten times easier to read and debug.
