I get that "allergic reaction" :)

But it does have its advantages in terms of robustness (accidental ";"), and scaling. For example, there are cases where "," can't be used:

Type myType;
if(cond)
    {int dummy = 5; initialize(myType, dummy);}

As a general rule, I feel that "{}" is ugly, but that once they are there, no-one is going to break my code.
