They are not unneccesary.  At least not in Python.  Unless you use the
line continuation with trailing '\' which is a bit uglier than parenthesis
(IMHO).

And you want to trade occasional parenthesis for mandatory curly braces? I
guess it leads to much more braces or other explicit end markers for suits
than the few "unneccessary" parenthesis one has to use to group long
expressions.
