It is not just about \(...\). Consider other verbatim Org markup like

| $10 | foo | $\alpha$ |
or
| =10+20 | 30 | =foo= |

I strongly encourage you to look into Org parser implementation and
think what is needed to achieve what you want. And then think again,
considering more complex scenarios when we have ambiguity between 3 or
more markup pairs. The idea you propose is very tempting (I have been
tempted myself), but that way lays madness.
