Bonk! Of course, I _love_ Auto Enclose! :-)
Because I'm not "typing a stream of code", I'm "composing nested expressions".
Now, when it included the less-than sign, I resented it, because it assuemed I was typing HTML. But for '"([ and {, they always go in pairs. The machine keeps my nestings correct and I can simply right-arrow to the next outer-level and press Command+Space to expose and "work on" that expression. Love it.
Of the curiously strongly negative reactions, though, I was able to glean just one tidbit of feedback (Colins).

I tried both of those, no joy. Actually, I looked through every preference in the Preference Browser, and all the settings in the workspace menu. I must be missing something, but I can't make this feature go away.
You want the "Auto Enclose" preference in category "Morphic".
I can't stand it either. Surprisingly little of my coding consists of typing code out linearly.
Likewise. I really, really, hate this supposedly ‘helpful’ kind of thing.
