Github user StephanEwen commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/flink/pull/2428 I am a bit cautious with such changes. There is no necessity to change the code, it only looses history, and there is always a slight risk of a new bug appearing. Some of the styles you are adjusting were actually good as they were before. For example, I personally very much prefer to always call Java Methods always with Parenthesis, since they are always defined with parenthesis. How about we just update code style on the fly in the parts we touch anyways?
