I'm no expert. I've no idea with regards to parens, but with quotes, this is definitely a UK/US difference.
In the US, a terminating/trailing period or comma goes inside the quote, "like this." — Whereas in the UK we do it "like this".
Personally, and as a programmer, parsing the UK usage makes more sense to me logically, and I find the other way to be mentally jarring. Just my 2p.
