Just my 2 cents on this...

I agree with you on the double negative. But I like parens, and spaces are not a substitute all the time.
Parens can serve to clarify, and I find them more helpful than not, paren use would have to be pretty excessive for me to
complain about them.

Spaces can come and go if you use things like NetBeans format options and how you have the spacing options defined.
