In Frescobaldi if you use Quick Insert to slur the four notes you'll get:

a( b c d)

I tend to think the syntax a ( b c d ) is preferable, but maybe with this syntax it is clearer that the '(' belongs to the 'a' and not to the 'b' - and ')' belongs to the 'd'.

Compare if you will with:

a \staccato b c d \staccato

The staccato marks will end up on the notes that precedes the command, that is a and d.

Yo can also compare with the phrasing slur:

a( b c d)

a\( b c d\)

a\staccato b c d\staccato

Best
