Yeah, and I would question:
1. why are you editing with a plaintext editor and searching stuff like
that? Are you in a super-hurry? Seems like a 0.001% scenario
2. why do you need to search for functions in a class? Just what kind of
monstrous abomination are you working on?
I think this conversation is going nowhere. We can equally ask
hypothetical questions the other way:
- Why do you find the word "function" so hard to type? Are you in a
super-hurry?
- Why are your function declarations so long that you need to save 8
characters? What kind of abomination are you working on?
etc
etc
There really isn't that much to say either way: some people like having
the keyword introduce each declaration, some people don't. Can we just
agree that it's a matter of style?
If we were designing a new language, we could vote on what consistent
style we wanted to create. With 20 years of existing language history,
there's always going to be a bias towards keeping things as they are.
