For what it's worth, IMO the static code analysis linters do is helpful. The enforcement of style standards not so much, unless it's a team of complete newbies who can't understand code not written in a specific way. Especially because people generally don't spend time to configure the linter, but adopt some existing style standard. Having the minutia of some style standard enforced robs the devs of a way to express themselves, and creates a culture where devs will overwrite each others formatting without thinking. Maybe there's a reason I separated two peaces of code by two empty lines. 1/2
