Just like you parse a sentence when you read it by noticing the
spaces defining where words are. And the commas separating
sections of a sentence, and periods/capitalization separating
the sentences, in-sentence capitalization signaling proper
nouns, etc. All of those are *technically* unnecessary too, but
notice how much harder it is to read (ie, "parse") when they're
absent.
one doesn't parse a sentence when one reads it, one translates a
sentence into images; why do you compare native speech sentences
with a programming language statements?
