Too many times I've watched people highlight (2,3) and type ( expecting to get blank parens and instead getting ((2,3)).
Because it's so easy to open and close parens, it doesn't feel like highlight & type should wrap (like we do with square roots and fractions).
Final proposed designs:
If the highlighted content is wrapped in parentheses and you type the same kind of parentheses, it erases the content and you're left with empty (and hardened) parentheses instead of double-paren-wrapping the contents.
