# How can I remove the outermost pair of brackets enclosing a Piecewise function when it occurs in an equation?

Recently I have been annoyed by an automatic formatting in MMA, that is when a Piecewise function occurs in an equation, it will be enclosed by a pair of brackets automatically by MMA, although when it emerges solitarily, there are no such pair of brackets.

For example, suppose I have a Piesewise function Piecewise[{{x^2, x < 0}, {x, x > 0}}]. When it is output alone, it is like:

However, when I put this Piesewise function at the Right-Hand-Side of an equation, an annoying pair of brackets occurs:

Generally speaking, placing a Piesewise function at the end of an equation is to discuss all possible results in different cases, where the automatically added pair of brackets is unnecessary and redundant. So I was wondering, how can I remove such kind of brackets both in Standard Form output as well as Traditional Form output?

(The reason why I would like to also remove the brackets in Traditional Form output is that: Traditional Form output is the starting point of latex code conversion. If Traditional Formoutput has such a pair of brackets, then there would also be one in the TeXForm or the latex code MMA generates.)
