The coding standard you link is not "MediaWiki's", it's Wikimedia's, and is meant to apply to all production code. I disagree with your argument (the developer community <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Front-end_standards_group> has had this conversation before and decided that easier portability to JSON is more important than cleaner diffs), but if you want to start a new conversation about changing it I'd be happy to facilitate.
