I disagree with you regarding legibility. I've been using commas like this in SQL for 10 years and I find it to be much more legible and functional this way.

Besides the subjective argument of legibility, what other benefits does it have?
Having a comma preceding something is an indicator that it is one of many. When debugging you can easily comment out the column, or table from a query.
