If they were changed I would be extremely annoyed because I would have
even less chance of remembering what they are. AFAIK a good subset is
the same across a wide number of languages too. That helps when
learning a new language. Hands off operator precedence! Thats what I
say.

Or just add extra parenthesis when you write your programs to make it explicit exactly what precedence levels you intended.
