At this point in my career it's just a personal habit.  I never programmed
C, done most of my development in Java so maybe that's a subconscious
influence?

I suspect it is partly because I seldom need to use "ON" but instead join
with "USING" which does require the parentheses, so when I need to use ON I
just keep them.

I agree they are unnecessary in the example and should be removed to be
consistent.
