Even the form you are using shows that the "&" operator is used with an integer to the left, and so, the "&" is meaningless. This is even more true with the C-style operator "&=" which, by definition, must not cast the operand to the left.
In other words, I would say that automatic type conversion must be performed only when reading values, and never when writing.
