I definitely find the former much easier to visually parse than the latter. I liberally unneeded parenthesis to emphasize parts of an operation which might depend too much on operator precedence, but humans are not great at keeping track of many nested parentheses.
These kinds of expressions tend to end with a cluster of parentheses, and it becomes hard to identify the beginning and end of each one, and making sure they're being closed at the right scope. Before someone comments "the editor will keep track of them for you", I want to answer that needing a tool to keep track of nested parenthesis might be a sign that such notation needs improvement.
