    Are people really this dramatic? There are plenty of conventions at work that we don’t like but just accept. We’ll moan about it every now and then (looking at you “only one return statement per method”), but in the end we’ll just accept that any standard is better than total mayhem and anarchy. Usually I write the code in a way that makes sense to me and then just tidy it up to satisfy the angry rule machine. Having moet of the code in the same format makes it easier to follow, and the code that was written before these rules has me convinced that this whole thing is am improvement.
