Maybe it's my early music background, but for one particular situation, I see no issue with it, and that's an ABA where the 2nd ending starts the B section, and 1st ending is the FINE for the repeat of the A section. I just don't see how that's confusing at all. Then again, it's a very familiar roadmap for music before 1800.
I must admit that this was my first reaction as well, but upon further reflection I realized that I have seldom, if ever, seen ending signs and brackets used in this idiom. More commonly I have seen the first A section, and the B section written out in full, with no repeat brackets, but with a DC or DS at the end of the B section, and the end of the composition after the reprise of the A section indicated by either a fermata, or the word "fine".
