Isn't the current style that && and || go at the end but other operators go
at the start? And yet in practice going at the end dominates for all
operators.

As for [2]:

"Rationale: operator at the front of the continuation line makes for faster
visual scanning, because there is no need to read to end of line. Also
there exists a context-sensitive keyword hazard in JavaScript; see bug
442099, comment 19, which can be avoided by putting . at the start of a
continuation line in long member expression."

The first sentence isn't compelling to me; reading to the end of a line
isn't that hard. Having an exception for . in JS might be reasonable. I
don't write JS much so that's not a high priority for me.
