Other techniques to make them less prominent is to use a text face or syntax highlighting to make them less prominent, e.g:

It's not that Lisp has many more parens as that it's simplicity mandates only 1 block structure is used to define s-expressions (lisp's AST), whereas other languages adopt multiple syntaxes for defining their different blocks structures, e.g. () {} [] <>, lisp only uses ().
