Many languages are subject to such assymetries: at times one writes nested calls, and at others, chained calls. a(b(c())) a().b().c() the latter form requires less mental overhead so why not favour it whenever possible?

It's more like c().b().a() which shows there is some "overhead" right there.

  I dont think so... c() would be evaluated first which is inconsistent with the other examples Edit: I realize vemv's examples are inconsistent as well
