I have no problem diving into a new code base on a new team with a style that’s unfamiliar. I absolutely do not want to switch styles as I work on the same project. I don’t much care what the style is. Successful implementations I’ve seen include: tasking one person to pick a style, then allowing exactly one meeting in which to iron out the quibbles. Or, literally googling for a style recommendation and just choosing one of the top results, as is, no discussion.
I agree that the endless religious arguments must be avoided. All the more reason to seek a strong manager and / or tech lead.
