"Making all code look the same" continues to baffle me as a goal.
The differences between code are specifically what helps to understand the intention of the author and the way they got there! It's really helpful for building an understanding!

Honestly the whole practice, with code autoformatters and all that, reeks to me of "none of us understand how to communicate and instead of learning that basic skill, we're just going to mandate a rigid lowest-common-denominator grammar to try and make things not fall apart entirely"
@joepie91 its that google mindset
@joepie91 i have always found auto formatting annoying. my manually formatted code will be better, because i know how to make something more clear with careful use of formatting.
the purpose of an auto formatter is when you have some absolute dreck formatted code and need to be able to read it. your code should not get this bad in the first place.
