You are certainly not a minority in the discussion. Personally I hate repeating the same argument as it's a style question. I program in C# and dislike braces on new lines, I leave it in place because my company rolled out a standard and if I deviate from that I create more work for myself and others.
Are you consistent with your formatting rules? I'd be interested to know how much time you spend formatting your code vs ceding control to an auto-formatter.
