I think that style(9) should be modified to include
"Parenthesis may be used to improve the readbility of complex
expressions even if not strictly required."
instead of the stupid phrase presently there.
also:
"Braces around code blocks should be allowable even when not strictly
needed, for the purpose of readbility."

The aim is to produce readble maintainable code, not to save bytes in
sourcecode!
