Well, I don't know who imported them, or why.  And I don't
really care.  I'm just saying the parens don't bother me.
I've been doing Ada since 1986, and have had numerous
styles imposed on me.

Yes, if you have an expression of "if a or else b and then c then".
What I had in mind was more "if a or else b or else c then".  Where
a, b, and c are complex expressions or function calls, not just
simple booleans.
