> I want to scratch my eyes out every time I see someone formatting with comma starting the lines
Right!? I _physically_ recoil every time I see that. I think that's the clearest example of normalisation of deviance [1] I know. Seems like anyone that enters the industry straight from data instead of moving from a more (software) engineering background gets used to this.
And the arguments in favour are always so weak! - It's easier to comment out lines - Easier to not miss a comma
Those are picked up in seconds by the compiler. And are a tiny help in writing code vs violating a core writing convention from basically every other language.
