And, remembered a third reason they were initially chosen: because it is difficult to tell a search engine, "search for this search term with parentheses around it." If you are searching using regex (regular expressions) then you could do it as "(term)" to search for "term" with one set of parens around it.
And want to be clear, I wasn't "casting aspersions" at you by saying "I'm not exactly certain how I should take this input" -- I was just "sharing some of my processing" as it were. Everything is input, processing, and output. :)
