It's a common convention to show a function with parens, even if it can't be called with no arguments. I don't think we want to make that table visually more complex by including all of the message signatures. open() has 8 params, min() and max() have multiple signatures, etc.

You could argue that removing the parens would be an improvement, since all items in the table are functions, but I think it's fine as it is.
