I enjoy the way that the New Yorker's style guide enforces consistency and precision in a way that is often lacking in English. Not just the diareses, but also the way they consistently follow the rule that when you add "ing" to a word that ends in a short vowel, you double the final consonant to make it clear that it is a short vowel. So the gerund of "bus" is "bussing", not the commonly used "busing", the latter of which looks like it ought to rhyme with "abusing". It's just clear that someone thought deeply about a system that follows consistent rules. You don't often see that with writing these days.
