Parentheses

When you omit parenthesis’s doesn’t that degrade readability of the

I’m just curious
what others have to say since I’ve seen a few folks say they like
to omit
them.

I’m definately in favor of omitting: I parse like natural language,
not
like a machine.

I don’t, and use them where I would have used them in most c-like
languages. Maybe it’s because I come from a C/C++/perl/java
background.

I dislike ambiguity.

Me too. But I still like to drop parentheses for some cases.
Omitting parentheses does not always introduce ambiguity.
