But that case isn't interesting at all.

Type:

(hello :-) )

Which one of the closing parens match the open paren?  The smiley one
or the un-smiley one?  For us puny humans, the last closing paren is
the "right" one; for Emacs it's the smiley one.

Now, then:

This is text.  (hello :-)  This is more text.

Is this smiley a closing paren smiley?  Yes, it would seem so.
(Unless a further closing paren comes later.  So we need a function to
guess whether a ":-)" is a closing paren smiley or just a normal
smiley.  Viz. `smiley-closing-paren-p'.
