Optional Parentheses

I haven't seen any good reasons to use parentheses where Swift says they are optional. It makes no more sense to use them in an if or for than it does in a simple math expression like foo = (x + y). Or the C incantation that some folks believe has mysterious powers: return (foo);

If you want your Swift to look more like C, go ahead and add the optional parentheses. But that seems an unworthy goal to me, and doomed to failure. :-)

Comparison with ==

I have the opposite view; strings are ordinary objects in Swift, the ordinary comparison operators like == seem reasonable to me. Building Objective-C on top of C forced some weird idioms on us. I'm willing to let them go.

If you want your Swift to look more like C, go a head an add the optional parentheses. But that seems an unworthy goal to me, and doomed to failure. :-)
