It's not an affliction, it's mindfulness for specific constructs that
own experience had shown to may become an issue (e.g. if someone else
maintains such code). It provides in the given example certainty about
the intention and that operator usage not having been a typo.

It's not (not necessarily) about knowledge of precedence. But illogical
precedence rules may of course be another reason to add parenthesis.
Though most precedence rules in C make parenthesis usually unnecessary
and expressions rarely need parenthesis to provide that certainty. The
operators ==, =, &, |, etc. get thus some special attention from me.

Calling that "affliction" and "clutter" is far off.

And here again, the parentheses are also already part of the design of
the C language, given that you *have* to use them even in if(), for(),
while(), etc. constructs.

With type safe booleans and with semantical chosen identifiers above
boolean assignment should not be a problem. So your formulation that
it's related to "C programmers", which rather should mean to the "C
language", is insofar correct.

Yes, and I explained that with the given rules you have no "clutter"
(as you called it), so that you can use them even if [by precedence]
unnecessary, to make (a few) specific contexts _clearer_ (i.e. the
opposite of clutter).

“Clutter” is when you put in ones you don’t need.

You seem to have some specific restricted definition for "need".
You may need it syntactically or not when you have a given semantics.
You may need it to clarify (or ascertain) something or not.

I certainly don't consider it "clutter" if I can make non-obvious
things clearer for the maintainers of a piece of code.

My practice is to avoid redundant parentheses.  If it's important
to emphasize the precedence relationships, in most cases I would
do that something like this:

    a =  b == c;

I find using spacing in such cases to be a better impedance match
to human eye hardware than using redundant parentheses.

You are mistaken; C++ had no 'bool' type initially. It had been added
later.

Pre-history vs history.
As far as I am concerned, 'initially' == it presents in in the first
edition of "The C++ Programming Language".

I've learned C++ from that (1st ed.) book and don't recall that it had
described the bool type. (But I don't have it anymore so cannot confirm
or falsify your statement. Newer editions of that book certainly do
mention bool.)
But I still have "The Design and Evolution of C++" which explains that
later "the ANSI/ISO accepted this argument so 'bool' is now a dedicated
integral type in C++ with literals 'true' and 'false'.".
The commercial C++ compilers we had used in the 1990's of course also
didn't support that type; we provided (as so many did these days) our
own Cpp 'bool' macros.

Can anyone confirm or falsify whether the 'bool' type was already
part of the 1st (1985) and/or the 2nd (1991) edition? - Thanks.

Through Google Books I could search for 'bool' in the 1st ed. and
could find just one match:  "enum bool { lalse, true };"
This is an indication that there was no 'bool' type part of the
language or described in the first editions of his books. (CMIIW)

I have the 2nd edition and there is no mention of a built-in bool type.
Relational expressions (those involving <, > etc.) have type int and
yield either 0 or 1.

Some data points.

I'm looking at 1989 sources for Cfront. There is no bool, except
in the implemnentation of an early version of templates, which
defines a bool for itself as: enum bool { true, false }.

Cfront 3.0.3 from around 1996 has a header like this:

  source/incl-master/const-headers/std_bool.h

in which this is found:

  typedef int bool;
  const bool false = 0;
  const bool true = 1;

So no built-in bool type distinct from int in the last Cfront for which
you can find source code.

Your memory is basically right about bool not having existed in
a substantial way back in the day.

I'm pretty sure you mean enum bool { false, true }.

Thanks for all confirmations! - I'm glad that my memory still
works at age. :-)

I recall we've pondered about the best way to emulate booleans;
typedef, enum, or #define. All options had disadvantages, and
none could substitute a real built-in first class bool type.

Yet another well known deficiency from the C/C++ languages.
A missing basic type is hard to fix later (without conflicts
with own 'bool' substitutes) if not considered initially as a
basic part of any language.

It was there from the first standard version of C++.  At that point, it 
was still possible to make breaking changes - such as changing the type 
of the result of comparison operators.  But you are correct that it did 
not exist in early drafts of C++ prior to standardisation.

And when was the first standard; 1998 - was it ISO/IEC 14882:1998 ?
Rather late. (I've had my professional C++ the decade before that.)

More importantly it wasn't available in commercial C++ implementations.
Bool and other useful features came rather late, unfortunately.

Yes.

I hadn't done much with C++ before then.  At that time, most of my 
professional programming was in assembly (on small microcontrollers) and 
Pascal, with only some C.

That's always the trouble with languages like C and C++.  And backwards 
compatibility means that new, better features can't replace the old 
features - you have to keep the old stuff too.  (C++ is "braver" than C 
at making breaking changes.)
