Agree, no reason to mess with try/catch at all. However for if there's a
small number of cases where brace-less block if ok, e.g. usually I could
write something like:
foreach($arr as $item) {
if(!good($item)) continue;
do_stuff($item);
}
and it's not that bad to have it brace-less. However anything more than
one-term continue or return or break something like that and you want
braces. Of course, this does not apply to try/catch since nobody does
just "return" inside try-catch.
In any case, I don't see any reason to mess with the braces. There's no
problem we'd be solving and it will only bring trouble and more messy code.
