Not that we don't have warnings that do this - that encourage parens to reinforce what the language already does to be more explicit/intentional about it, and in some cases it's not that uncommon that the user will be adding parens that reinforce the precedence rules anyway. Like, I think all the fixes in libc++, llvm, etc, are false positives? (none of them found bugs/unintended behavior) Are there any examples of bugs being found by this warning in a codebase?

But it looks like this case might've been intentionally suppressed in the initial warning implementation? (anyone linked to the original warning implementation/review/design to check if this was intentional?) But, yeah, seems marginal enough I don't have strong feelings either way.
