Thanks. Since this feature extremely limited in scope even in C++, I don't think we should draw analogies here.

Thanks @Josh-Cena for the feedback! I agree — given how limited the behavior is even in C++, removing the analogy is the right call. |

This change corrects the language comparison by clarifying that increment chaining is possible in C++ only for pre-increment expressions. It avoids the incorrect implication that such chaining is generally supported in C, and improves the technical precision of the explanation around value vs reference evaluation.
