I agree with you that attire doesn't matter, but we're currently in a swing of increasing conformity. Including (or maybe especially) in tech. It doesn't look like the stereotype of conformity from our parent's generation, so people don't acknowledge it for what it is. Or think that conflict between subcultures with a handful of mutually exclusive standards for conforming somehow nulls it out.
