I was under the (vague) impression that it's better to let the compiler
decide when to inline, except for trivial alternatives in headers.

Wrt parens around arguments, I figured they are not required here, since they
are used as function arguments. Though you may have a valid point.

Antti, Sean?

Thanks for taking a look!
