Excellent point.

The other thing about using square brackets syntactically is that they
allow for multiple line constructs without resorting to backslashes.

def foo(a, b, c) [firstdecorator,
                     seconddecorator,
                     thirddecorator]:

vs.

def foo(a, b, c) as firstdecorator, \
                        seconddecorator, \
                        thirddecorator:
