I find that semicolon connotes "Concept B follows from, but is distinct from, Concept A", while parens connote "Concept B follows from, and is intertwined with, Concept A".

Because all thoughts are intertwined.

I find parenthesis are best when concept B is worth noting, but tangential to concept A, especially when the next few points are going to be back on the same track that A was on.

A pair of em dashes—which, admittedly, are a lot harder to use on a PC—serve the same function. I've seen some people in this thread say you'll get called an LLM for using them now, but I've never experienced that.
