Yes, but I don't believe that would add anything to readability...
I think the key is not about everybody using the same style,
but about each one using a "consistent" style.
If one always use the same style, even a non-programmer it's perfectly able
of understanding it after a couple of example, because it's always the same.
And even when different people works upon the same code, I don't think it's
a bad thing if each one uses it's own style, so diferent pieces of code can be
easily spotted.
But this is just me... :-)

On another note all blocks should use {}, spaces instead of tabs. 2 spaces is
the perfect amount of indent.
void mmm(int i, String[] sss) {
if (i < 0) {
i = 0;
}
if (sss == null) {
sss = new String[0];
}
}

I use the ?: a lot!!!
I agree that an if/else is more readable, but in some situations the ?: is
better.
For example I use it to "normalize" method parameters:
void mmm(int i,String[] sss)
{
i = i < 0 ? 0 : i;
sss = sss == null ? new String[0] : sss;
...
}
The above is much more concise than:
void mmm(int i,String[] sss)
{
if( i < 0 )
i = 0;
if( sss == null )
sss = new String[0];
}
and I don't find it any less readable...
Sure enough in other cases an if/else is much better!!!

I think that using an if/.else statement is much more
readable than the
?: operator.
It's just another one of those coding religious wars such as if the {
should be on the same or the next line.
