Yes, please. This avoids shifting a non-zero bit to the 31st position of a
32-bit register.

I think it's actually much better to end a line with opening parenthesis
than have a line longer than 80, but I recognise there are differing
opinions.

My terminal window width is 80 and having more terminals is more useful
than being able to see a rare line over 80 completely.
