I'd like to see more examples, but yes, that 1 example is much better than
the previous zero!

Please add this small diff to your proposed wording (as I said in an
earlier email in this thread):

A simple *An* assignment whose left operand is of a volatile-qualified type
is deprecated ([depr.volatile.type]
<http://eel.is/c++draft/depr.volatile.type>) unless the (possibly
parenthesized) assignment is a discarded-value expression or an unevaluated
operand. <http://eel.is/c++draft/expr.ass#5.sentence-1>

Or, if you don't want to do this, please explain your reasoning in (a new
section of) the paper.
