So basically this:

    sub() {}

does not try to parse the /1;#/+ as an argument because the () indicates there are no arguments (although they could be explicitly included if f were called with (), whereas this:

    sub f {}

does try to parse the /1;#/+ as an argument because that's perl's behavior if () are omitted?

That's right.
