As far as the formatting questions, whitespace maybe isn't the best
example. For a moe "pungent" case, there are many, many different ways to
combine braces, newlines and whitespace through the codebase (maybe an effect
of its long history)? Some code uses braces for every control statement, some
only when required, some mixed. That sort of thing makes it difficult to read
code. I will try to restart this conversation on @dev and try to spur some
interest in normalizing on some of these things. There would have to be some
change (non-functional formatting commits) but at low cost and I think it worth
it.
