IMHO this is myopic. We have much larger issues with e.g.
safety, shared, and the core threading library, than syntactic
minutia. All of this changing what works has its value, but
that pales in comparison.
Agreed, but...
It is not the case that trivial matters like this are taking
resources away from somewhere else. Take away all the trivia,
and the important stuff still wouldn't get done because each cat
in this herd disagrees on where to go or how to get there.
IMO, none of these light bulbs are blocking the sun, and at least
they are making some contribution to the ambient light.
