The reason why I made the switch was that it really irked me when one line missed a semicolon. No warning, no error and completely valid code. It really triggered my proverbial OCD. That one function out of ten where I made that typo. So I stopped, and it was a major relief. Note that I didn't use a linter at that time. I don't really mind semicolons in languages where they are enforced, but I also don't end statements in Python with semicolons.
