Semicolon and Perl

I guess most of the people have noticed about this and have just ignored it. Or they must not have noticed it at all. Do you know this fact about perl:
 If you write this :
for(@arr) { print $_ }
Its not an error in Perl. According to Perldoc:
Every simple statement must be terminated with a semicolon, unless it is the final statement in a block, in which case the semicolon is optional.
