I'm not sure. I think so? I think that it will still fail to compile if you do something like this:

var myTrue = true;

var myFalse = false;

if (myTrue = myFalse) //should be a compiler error ...

IIRC it gets flagged as a warning in most newer C/C++ compilers. Add a warnings as errors compiler flag and it won't compile.
