personal preference, I think.
And perl/python is apples and oranges: python is object oriented (like java, C++),
while perl is more like C.
A lot of people take issues with perl's lack of standards-- where {}, (), etc, may or
may not be required.
As to having {} and ;, it's a matter of the language structure, and that's all.
Whether or not you use them is simply a matter of how you structure the language.
