What's worse, it can come up naturally in header files because it's a valid declaration in C if iso646.h is not included. So it's plausible to write the signature in a library exposing a C interface that changes the function signature when compiled in C++ -- this warning helps alert the programmer to such a situation. I'm not aware of any popular coding guidelines that suggest using alternative tokens, but their use does show up in the wild.
