If you’re using Unicode symbols and their built-in precedence is not appropriate, you could open an issue about changing their precedence. There tends to be one “correct” precedence level for a given operator based on whether it is addition-like, multiplication-like, etc.

This is not a bug, it’s a feature that you wish Julia had that it doesn’t have.
