    Had a colleague who would comment things like “add a newline here” as well as things that were fully his own preference.

    That was the only time I closed comments without replying to them or fixing them, without feeling bad.

      For stuff like that, it’s best to have an auto formatter like checkstyle or something.

        My point exactly! But naw, several others on the team insisted this guy policing others manually is better than putting a linter in the pipeline.

        I don’t work there anymore, this is one of the (minor) reasons.
