It should be more readable for humans indeed, but I guess my transformation
into a processor is now irreversible ;)

Still happens with strictfp.
(about strictfp, off-topic but I removed it from all my code after
someone pointed out it added some overhead (like 20ms+ on
10_000_000 calls micro-benchmarks, so about 2ns+), when
having strictfp code call non-strictfp code or the opposite)
