Well, if you get tired of Tech Writing, I'm sure that your Software
Design Quality department could use your sound judgement.
Might and even if it's not *wrong* do not an error make. As you aver,
the Standard does not say whether a space can follow a unary operator

the asterisk and the variable is noncompliant.
Most coding guidelines would agree with you, but as far as the Standard
goes, it's not an issue.
