Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 Replying to [comment:11 dd32]:
 > To echo that, one of the primary reasons for using endif verses braces
 was to improve readability with large chunks of HTML, it's much harder to
 discern which brace ends a if or while than an explicit endif; and
 endwhile;.

 I had the same impression. Braces are fine for core itself, but even core
 generally uses the if/endif syntax for better readability when it comes to
 HTML output, so +1 to the handbook section reflecting that.
