Instead of using overloaded (), may be f[x] will cause less trouble,
and more inline with clojure's syntax as [ ] already being used for
defining the arguments of the function.

The modified reader will report no more, no less parsing error than
the current Clojure reader.

The proposed syntax sugar does not break the existing code, it make it
easier to read and more fun for programmer from other language on the
ramping up stage. Even with mixed notation, I don’t see issue of
usability; the modified reader will handle it.
I sense the objection is that the f(x) notatio

However there are two syntax notations always bother me, it feels
