I think the biggest proof that linting in general is not condescending against any one style is the frequent existence of multiple mutually exclusive linter checks, one for each style.
Consistent style is really nice.
- brundolf 5y agoI'm in the camp that "style" has very little real impact on readability, and linting for it mostly just creates friction. Maybe one time out of 100 I've got a weird case that truly needs to be indented differently, but my linter forbids it as dogma, so I either end up with code that's less readable or I add the noise of linter-disabling comments. The things that really impact how understandable some code is have little to do with punctuation, or whether or not these two characters have a space in-between, or what type of quotes we use.
