I do like the square brackets. They don't require holding down shift. And when you're writing the next killer app, and in the process, end up setting the world record for the longest string of subsequent ')' characters... that saves you a ton of stress on your pinky finger ;-)

Not if you re-map '(' and ')' to the '[' and ']' keys which, I think, is commonly done.
