This reminds me of the medieval discussion of how many teeth does a
horse have.  Philosophers would allegedly discuss for hours how many
teeth they thought a horse ought to have.  Apparently nobody considered
actually looking at a horse and counting the teeth.

Wouldnt it make more sense for somebody to look at the C standard(s)
and see what they say about lhs vs rhs first evaluation?
