Precedence aside, I find it much easier to read
((x != y) && (x != z))
than
(x != y && x != z)
as the inner ()'s automatically make it clear that the statements
are being grouped together.  It's a very useful visual cue.

Sin(e I've n()t spent very much time with lisp ()r ()ther similar
languages, I d()nt have any feelings ab()ut bra(kets making
it l()()k like s()me ()ther language.
Here's ()ne suggesti()n: st()p using ema(s.

Have a nice day.
