Dang you beat me to it. Pretty funny that sibling comment spawned a perfect example.
i'm not sure i understand how that is a 'perfect example' of 'don't tolerate dissent'. could you elaborate?
I don't think that is a fair evaluation of that comment thread. I explained with links and resources _why_ elm-format is how it is, and _why_ it is considered a feature to not have flags. I also backed this up by showing how many of the users enjoy elm-format. This is not saying "don't dissent". This is saying "this argument is a strawman"
This links to a thread where an Elm community member politely explains design decisions.
