On this matter specifically (the interpretation of { at the start of an
ExpressionStatement), the syntax appears to be very clear and
unambiguous.

Can you give an example of a Script (or Module) where the syntax permits
more than one valid parse?  That would clarify what you consider to be
"the syntax".  Presumably you are discounting, as syntax, one or more of
the rules that I consider to part of it.

Alternatively you could be rude again, and I'll know not to try to
understand your position.
