I prefer this syntax as it is more explicit that (x1d - x2) and (y1d -
y2) are double values (not implicit promotion).

I see.  Arguably both are implicit promotion, though, no?

Mathematiconceptually, "x2 as a double minus x1d" and "y2 as a double minus y1d" are the values one would associate with a slope calculation, type promotion semantics aside.

But, both are correct so I'm happy with either way that you are comfortable maintaining the code...
