I did not say it was avoiding ambuguity, I said it helped
with readability when $foo held something like "1.2"

But I really think this thread is going no where.

Is there REALLY a benefit in changing things to use only []
or is this change for the sake of change.

And rememeber this is still perl, so why change something unless
it gains extra benefit.
