[image equivalent to { a b c d( a b c d) }

[which would be equivalent to { a( b c d a b c d) }]

This sounds like a misunderstanding.  At least it does not make sense to
me.

hihi :)

This is exactly what I wanted. But I don't understand why your code works
and mine doesn't.
Isn't "var" a phrase and 'd' the last note of the that phrase?

Probably not what you had in mind.  ( and ) are not treated differently:
they are attached to the last note of a preceding phrase, similarly any
other post-event.  But you could probably write

{<>( \var \var )}

instead to get what I presume to be the desired effect.

What about this David:

\version "2.19.81"
var = {a b c d}
{\var( \var )}


Will it work in the future?

2.21.0 (current master) accepts it as-is.
