For some reason this reminds me of semantic highlighting.
A constant is not just an identifier - like a variable - it's a constant.
There's more semantic in the text than the usual syntax highlighters highlight.
Some code formatters are good and exist for json or edn (extensible data notation) or even full programming languages like smalltalk or even more complex ones like typescript.
In a team it's true that code can be chaotic because not everybody uses a formatter and obviously we all have different coding style, even if the tooling made it more structured.
So yes it would help to enforce more structure in a seamless way so we can focus on the important stuff without creating huge diffs in pull requests.
