The logic behind it is that declaration matches use. Arguably declarator syntax could be improved by making the dereferencing operator (for both declararation and use) postfix, so you never needed to worry about precedence in declarators. It'd have to be different from *, of course, but that needn't be a problem. @ might be a reasonable choice.
