While true, the parenthesis can be helpful to the reader

Certainly extra parentheses can be helpful to some readers.

Considered as a question of fact, the proposition that extra

case that the adverse effects are thought to be unimportant
relative to some proposed benefit, but that is a question of
opinion rather than a question of fact.
