But if you have more than one pair, it not easy to pair them up unless
the matching pairs are visually distinctive. My favourite scheme is
simply to use bigger braces on the outside. Mathematicians have been
doing this for centuries.

Because of the punch card  with FORTRAN we abandoned our inheritance
of mathematical notation. Now we have a graphical interface, I think
IDEs should start typesetting expressions much as they would a appear
in a math text, e.g. showing division numerator over denominator,
using super and subscripts.
