- adnzzzzZ 6y agoThe example given in comment #20 provides a practical reason for it, in that in some cases it makes things more consistent visually. But mostly these reasons are subjective and some people will be more or less sensitive to them. A lot of programming language design and tool design in general is not completely rational or about functionality only.
