    Same. There is a logic to all code choices. Even basic things like the placement of empty lines to group code into ‘idea blocks’ massively helps with readability. This idea block touches x, and this next idea block touches y.

    A tool can’t perform perform even basic logic like that.

      If you have a lot of semantic breakpoints (like the end of a concept) that don’t line up with syntactic breakpoints (like the end of a method or expression body) your code probably needs to be refactored. If you don’t, then automatic code formatting is probably all you need.
