It's not a shortcoming of the interpreter; it's the ambiguousness of using the same symbols for two different purposes. It can't read your mind to know whether you want to group an expression with parentheses for precedence purposes or use the parentheses to group the arguments to the operator. I suggest not using a space between a function name and the opening parenthesis.
