>Most styleguides really do benefit from rationales. Just stating something ex cathedra sounds rather patronizing. The author kind of explained their justification in their blog post[1]: >It beggars belief how many readers claim to have read the guide and yet I still get messages asking for justifications. At the very top, the introductory paragraph clearly states that Celko’s book is the place to find in-depth discussion of each point. Discussions of justification have no place in a style guide anyway. Not sure I agree with this last point.
