Some explanation about my personal view of Lua function call:

I disagree with your exposition, but good luck anyways. :-)

I see f"a" and f{a} as still having a couple of paired delimiters.
I will gladly continue putting parentheses in my function calls.

Psychologically, IMHO this kind of thing matters very little to me, when, in the course of embedded hardware coding, my comment section is often 2X the size of my code.
It also brings up not-so-sunny memories of having to internalize 
all the C++ behaviours one has to know. Should one aspire to 
emulate the amount of behaviours in C++?
An analogy is the 'elegance' of modern flat-like UIs where visual 
guides have been trimmed out. I'm not a fan.
