> a dedicated negation operator it should have a higher precedence than power

I prefer the traditional precedence; it ensures - 3 ^ 2 = 0 - 3 ^ 2

I understand the argument, I just wish that the most standard school calculator would highlight somehow what it's doing

Another one is "2 ^ 1 / 2 Enter". Some calculators give 1, newer ones give sqrt(2).
