I think there's some misunderstanding here. Parens change the nature of 
expressions ALL the time.

There is a weird rule in C++11 that makes sometimes typeof(expr) and 
typeof((expr)) mean different things. That is arguably an example to 
avoid. But introducing parens among parts of an expression is expected 
to affect meaning.
