I think I prefer having the optional (and sometimes non-standard) parenthetical information coming at the "end of the phrase identifying the method"; breaking up the main elements of the method seems unnecessary. I would prefer, for example "mean where sea_ice (and in the immediate vicinity of polar bears)" to "mean (in the immediate vicinity of polar bears) where sea_ice". Perhaps we should allow the parenthetical information to appear anywhere within the method description, but recommend that it often most naturally would be placed at the end of the phrase.
