C and C++ use for (;;) {} as an unconditional loop.

    Ah, good point. Does make me wonder how the font developers test the effect of certain ligatures, like did they actually have both Clojure comments and unconditional C loops in mind when they introduced this ligature...? I guess, it doesn't really break anything, so could just introduce it and see if anyone complains.
