That seems just as arbitrary and unintuitive, though.
There are some other unintuitive consequences as well, e.g.
you can write
not a + b
but it's not immediately obvious that this is parsed as
'not (a + b)' rather than '(not a) + b'.
The presence of one arbitrary and unintuitive thing in the
grammar is not by itself a justification for adding another one.
