    <thetext>(OT: the online translator gave &quot;ballyhoo&quot; for the Dutch &quot;stemmingmakerij&quot;, but I doubt that&apos;s a proper expression. I just mean to say that the word, as used in that sentence, reads as the view of the writer, which I think we should try to prevent.)

Section 3.22 Arrow operator:

This syntax is particularly helpful when conventional function call syntax is unreadable...

I prefer something like:

This syntax is particularly helpful when conventional function call syntax may make code harder to read....

Perhaps I&apos;m a bit over-pedantic, not a big deal I guess, but I find &quot;unreadable&quot; quite strong, besides, we have lived with this older syntax for over a decade and managed quite well ;).</thetext>

    <thetext>This is now addressed under #29346. Not a duplicate, so I resolve this as MOVED.</thetext>
