+### Parentheses
+
+Some parentheses are optional in the Python grammar.  Any expression can
+be wrapped in a pair of parentheses to form an atom.  There are a few
+interesting cases:
+
+- `if (...):`
+- `while (...):`
+- `for (...) in (...):`
+- `assert (...), (...)`
+- `from X import (...)`
+
+In those cases, parentheses are removed when the entire statement fits
+in one line, or if the inner expression doesn't have any delimiters to
+further split on.  Otherwise, the parentheses are always added.
