That one little tidbit is the only valid reason for it and it started it all. In other words, it's only way to return an object literal like that in a function. So the community just adapted this style.

return (
   { 
      p1: 1,
      p2: 2
   });
// or (my preference)
var result =
   { 
      p1: 1,
      p2: 2
   };

return result;

var f1 = function() {
  return {
    value: 'the-value'
  };
}

var f2 = function() {
  return
  {
    value: 'the-value'
  };
}

f1()

f2()
