As someone who has been Nim programming for just over a week now, I really 
don't mind this feature at all. I would consider myself to be a more open 
minded programmer though, I actually rather enjoy typing lots of (((( and )))) 
in LISP...

As a novice (to the language) my first impressions about style insensitivity 
have been:

  * I appreciate being able to use whatever conventions I want in my code, and 
if someone didn't agree it doesn't matter because I can still do what I want (I 
like being able to do what I want)
  * If I am careful I should be able to avoid problems (what language doesn't 
have a feature like that?)
  * But on the other hand, I haven't really found a need to use anything other 
than camelCase yet
  * Anyone who would be completely turned off to a language by what imo a tiny 
cosmetic issue probably wasn't going to see value in it or like it anyway
  * PEOPLE HATE CHANGE
