But for many people "caring that strongly" and "doing something about it" means choosing another option. As opposed to essentially writing a new language.

Good defaults do matter, and I would also echo the feeling that the parentheses get in the way, and that a non-small component of my thinking or polishing process is how to responsibly reduce parentheses. I find that it's generally a modest but palpable boost to visual ease. I do wonder whether there's a better way to denote nested lists?
