Are you sure that the first example really works? It might do somehting
unexpected, even if the compiler doesn't complain.
The problem with "{" and "}" is the conflict between these characters as
delimiters of comments (the whole directive), and their use as
identifiers inside the directives.
As soon as you've redefined the meaning of "{" in the first line, it
most probably becomes impossible to add any further compiler directive,
because these start with exactly that redefined character!
