I can think of three others. There may be more.

C does not define the term "simple variable" so presumably you define it
to be any named object that /can/ appear on the LHS of a simple
assignment -- a sort of "no true Scots-variable".

I can think of at least one expression form for X that contradicts this
claim.
It would be great if C had simple rules, but it doesn't. You could have
started by saying something about the most comment forms of assignment
being those you list, and that X can be almost any term, but the risk of
making absolute claims is that people (like me) will look into them.
