My idea behind using always braces was that then I'm always sure Perl

it is hard to make perl do the wrong thing with print and handles.
in fact there are many ways to print and indirect handles is
a weak style IMO. OO style is cleaner (you need to load IO::File or
IO::Handle). you can select the new handle with select() and later
reselect STDOUT (there are idioms and modules for this).
As long as I use the "three-argument" form of open I don't see any
reason not to use open (at least in small scripts).
where did i mention open? you load IO::File or IO::Handle so you can do
OO style print calls. this has nothing to do with open. using those
modules for open is possible but unneeded IMO.
