The thing with readability is that consistency matters more than the specific style chosen as any serious time spent with a specific style will teach you to read the code regardless of the chosen style. This is why Perl developers often defend the readability complaints of the language and why C++ style syntax gained popularity despite Pascal's syntax being arguably more readable.
My point is everyone will have their own personal preferences about style guidelines and argue that theirs is the most readable but frankly the most readable is just whatever you spend the most time reading. So you quickly get good at reading other language style guides when you spend time coding in their respective languages
