Well, a couple things:
My points are related to provable advantages to doing it while writing code. They’re also not argumentative.
Your points are related to a personal preference of aesthetic while reading code. They are not provable advantages. They’re also quite “ranty,” which is rarely a persuasive way to convince someone of your position.
If you actually want to get people to change their habits around this, I think you’ll have better luck with my approach than ranting about why you don’t like how it looks.
if aesthetics reason is what gets through, I'm really lost then. for sure that's a rant. thank you, have a nice day
