I've never seen this, but maybe since sentences with a parenthesis in it very rarely get a line break in the middle?
It is rather common in books, where you often see direct speech spanning multiple paragraphs.
Edit: sorry, I misinterpeted/misread the comment. I've never seen the double parentheses thing either
The quotation mark one is common in books yeah, but the parentheses one referred to by the comment you responded to isn’t. I haven’t seen that one either.
Ooh yeah you are right i misinterpreted the comment I was replying to.
