Ok, in the bodies of those, put in

j1=c1;

j2=c2;

j3=c3;

With new definitions for j1, j2 and k3 as being volatile. Accesses are volatile:

[#2] Accessing a volatile object, modifying an object,
modifying a file, or calling a function that does any of
those operations are all side effects

So, I would claim that the case is symetric with writing volatiles.
If the standard doesn't make a distinction for write v read, then you
can't and claim that distinction is based in the standard. If you
claim the standard does make a distinction, please point it out, I am
unaware of it.
