Agreed. Whenever I see one of those operator precedence tables in a programming language book, I just skip it. Other than BODMAS, I have no real idea what precendence logical/bitwise operators etc have - I just use parentheses, and always have done.

Like you say - why waste brain cycles trying to parse expressions. But then I also write comments in my code :-)
