Not requiring any bracketing is poor IMO.

If you wanted the tuple to co-exist with any other thing in an 
expression, rather than being the only thing the expression comprises, 
then you will run into problems. Try adding two tuples:

   1, 2, 3 + 4, 5, 6

This in fact gives you 1,2,7,5,6 rather than 5,7,9. (I don't know if 
tuples can actually be added like this, but the point is clear.)
