My problem with grep { ! code } is the same problem I have with if (!
expression): I've never developed a real trust in operator precedence.
Even looking at your pseudocode example, I itched to "fix" it with grep {!
(code) }.

This may be a weakness on my part, but I like computers to address my
weaknesses: I certainly spend enough time addressing theirs.
