Speaking as the author, I'm a bit offended. Yes, the indentation width was changed, and this was acknowledged both in the post and in the comments, but you seem to conveniently ignore everything else that was said. Increasing the default indentation width does improve readability, but readability is still further improved by trailing parens, for the multitude of reasons the article mentions. - Greg > The author changes indentation widths between examples, while focusing > entirely on the trailing-parens.
