Parenthesized expression does not work as a lower FOR loop bound

Details

    Description

      This script works fine in Oracle:

      BEGIN
      		 
      FOR i IN (1)..(2)
      		 
      LOOP
      		 
        NULL;
      		 
      END LOOP;
      		 
      END;
      		 
      /

      An equivalent script in MariaDB fails on error:

      SET sql_mode=ORACLE;
      		 
      DELIMITER /
      		 
      BEGIN
      		 
      FOR i IN (1)..(2)
      		 
      LOOP
      		 
        NULL;
      		 
      END LOOP;
      		 
      END;
      		 
      /


      ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near '1)..(2)

            Another example script that works in Oracle but an equivalent script fails in MariaDB:

            BEGIN
            		 
              FOR a IN (1)+1..3
            		 
              LOOP
            		 
                NULL;
            		 
              END LOOP;
            		 
            END;
            		 
            /
