Some programming languages do away with operator precedence for a big parsing speed boost. J/APL and stack languages are "best known". in J, right to left parsing,

16 = 4 * 2 + 2

Assuming an equation with no context is anything but standard mathematics is peak "well, technically"

There's big advantages to no precedence rules. You don't have to remember them all. Haskell/SML family create nightmares from trying to have user defined operators with precedence "value" of 0-10. Operators are extremely powerful syntax simplification, but precedence rules makes them too hard to mentally parse.

People who are responsible for the Wayland protocol: "This seems like a good idea, but also give veto rights to weirdos."
