Yes, GCC and Clang have this behavior; In GCC manual, it says:

     If you use multiple '-O' options, with or without level numbers,
     the last such option is the one that is effective.

However, not all compilers have this behavior.  So, please don't change.

Well, I would understand your intention to prefer simpler things.  Thank
you for your attempt.
