Thanks Mike, I had missed that first bit :
declare function local:test()
as xs:string+
{
"a", "b", "c"
};
I always write
declare function local:test()
as xs:string+
{
( "a", "b", "c" )
};
But now I can save 2 bytes !
( well , more importantly, save some distraction on my eyes)

Parens aren't necessary inside a function unless they're required by
surrounding syntax. For example, some developers feel the need to write
'return' in all their functions, so they always put FLWOR expressions in
their functions. But it isn't necessary.
This function decl works without a problem:
declare function local:test()
as xs:string+
{
"a", "b", "c"
};
http://www.w3.org/TR/xquery/#doc-xquery-FunctionDecl
FunctionDecl ::= "declare" "function" QName "("
ParamList? ")"
("as" SequenceType)? (EnclosedExpr | "external")
http://www.w3.org/TR/xquery/#doc-xquery-EnclosedExpr
EnclosedExpr ::= "{" Expr "}"
