To be clear, I think you aren't saying "It's not because 'function powers' make sense" (which seems to apply that's not the reason it's done, and possibly that the reason isn't correct), but rather "It's not [an appalling notation], because 'function powers' make sense"—to me, that extra comma changes the meaning!
