I see, and I guess using parenthesizes inside an object could break other 
things.
Although I like the correspondence between query syntax and printed node
type [1], it’s probably better not print parenthesizes inside an object.
Now that node is printed as #<treesit-node block in 159-173>

[1] (block) -> #<treesit-node (block) in ...>
    ";"     -> #<treesit-node ";" in ...>
