It's superior :-)

I find reading code that uses Octave extensions are much more easy to
read. Therefore, I heavily use them in my own developments.

Even if we switched to using Matlab code style in all packages (not that
I'm suggesting such a policy) you would still have the problem that some
functions exist in Octave but not in Matlab. Should we then not allow
their usage in Octave-Forge. I think there is more to portability then
syntax.
