I'm very smol brain in math, but maybe it's not so dumb to discuss these things. Sometimes notation is commonly misused and distinguishing between f and f(t) might be pedantic in some cases, but it doesn't seem so wrong. That is why there is often separate notation to make it explicit. Mathematical notation seems to be more context sensitive, but it also implies much more, sort of like a medium between a programming language and a natural language.

If everybody is in agreement if the function value or the function is meant, there is no issue here, no?
