You don't have to, because you don't end up with }}}}}}}}} in Rust, because statements end with ; and not }.

I didn't end up with ))))))))) in Scheme because it was easy to create smaller functions. I do see rust ending with

      }
    }
  }

In TypeScript I'll often find myself ending blocks of code with

        });
      }
    });
  }

I'm having fun with TS, but I do miss the parentheses. They were simpler.

1. Lots of small functions lead to code in which bugs often hide in plain sight, see this old memo by John Carmack: http://number-none.com/blow/john_carmack_on_inlined_code.htm...

2. Scheme is better than Common Lisp when it comes to Lots of Irritating Superfluous Parenthesis, since declaring a variable in Scheme (using 'define') doesn't create a new nesting like it does in Common Lisp (using 'let').
